Will plastic trucks lose their shape?

Hi Everyone,

I’ve printed with rubber adjustable trucks before, and I know for those trucks we would always take our rollers off the press for storage so the rubber wouldn’t get smooshed out of shape. The press I just bought has non-adjustable hard plastic trucks. Do people still take the rollers off with these trucks, or is it ok to leave the rollers on the press?

The plastic trucks seem pretty hard and they don’t seem like they could be morphed out of shape, but I’m not very familiar with them.

Your thoughts are appreciated.

There’s no need to worry about them. They’ll be fine.
