I graduated in communication design back 7 years ago, I used to work for a sort of digital printing company between 2012 and 2014, it was a bit of a mix between a printing service for small&big publishing company needs, like Mondadori, for industrial companies needs like Whirlpool and such (instruction leaflets and such) and a service for anyone who wanted to self-publish 100/200/500 copies of their own crappy version of 50 shades of Grey...ok, maybe its over-exaggerated but that nails the overall quality. In that company I used to work in the pre-print, aswell as printing from to time on some Canon and Xerox machines (they had an Igen4), pretty much small format equipment. In the end I also ended up helping the guys in the binding and finishing line cause by late 2014 nearly 30 of about 50 employees were fired or not working there anymore. By then I left aswell, and switched through a few workplaces, at first a small shop (terrible experience) for one month, then moved back to my town and i worked for 3 months at a small company which had some fantastic large format digital printing equip. Unfortunately it was a temporary thing and by the summer it was over. As of now I'm working as a sort of basic worker in a packaging plant. It is still sort of temporary too, even if I was told there's a chance I can get taught to work on the line as way more than basic worker. I wouldn't mind putting my hands and eyes to understand about the technical bits.
