Pa nthawi yosindikiza makina osindikizira a flexo, pamakhala nthawi yolumikizirana pakati pa pamwamba pa anilox roller ndi pamwamba pa mbale yosindikizira, pamwamba pa mbale yosindikizira ndi pamwamba pa substrate. Liwiro losindikiza ndi losiyana, ndipo nthawi yolumikizirana ndi yosiyana. kusamutsa inki mokwanira, ndipo kuchuluka kwa inki kumasamutsidwa kwakukulu. Pa mtundu wolimba, kapena makamaka mizere ndi zilembo, ndipo substrate ndi zinthu zoyamwa, ngati liwiro losindikiza ndi lotsika pang'ono, zotsatira zosindikiza zidzakhala bwino chifukwa cha kuchuluka kwa inki yosamutsidwa. Chifukwa chake, kuti tiwongolere magwiridwe antchito otumizira inki, liwiro losindikiza liyenera kutsimikiziridwa moyenera malinga ndi mtundu wa zithunzi zosindikizidwa ndi magwiridwe antchito a zinthu zosindikizira.
