Kohinoor Offset Printers
Offset
printing is the most commonly used printing method today. Over 40% of all print
jobs are carried out using offset printing. Offset printing works in a simple
manner. It uses three cylinders to transfer the image onto the substrate. The
first cylinder is mounted with the printing plate. The image on the printing
plate is ‘right’ reading or written with the right side up. The first cylinder
is inked and the image transferred or offset onto the second cylinder, which is
mounted with a rubber blanket. The image on the second cylinder is thus
reversed or becomes ‘wrong’ reading. Finally the image is transferred from the
blanket cylinder onto the third cylinder or the substrate. The substrate is
mounted on the third cylinder also known as the impression cylinder. The image
once again is reversed and becomes ‘right’ reading or right side up in the
final printed version. A unique characteristic of offset printing is that the
image and non-image areas are on the same surface level. The printing method
uses the chemical fact that oil and water do not mix to print from a single
surface level. In fact, offset printing acquired this method from lithography
and thus it is often referred to as litho offset printing as well. Offset
printing invades every aspect of our lives from influencing education through
the printing of books, periodicals and other reading material to the packaging
industry by creative printing of packages for consumer goods. The many
applications of offset printing would be difficult to put down but suffice to
say that the world would be a much less fun place to live in without offset printing.
Thus, offset printing is the printing technique that has made newspapers
possible, books affordable and marketing and promotion the weapons of the
common man. Offset printing offers the best price per piece in the printing industry.
It is also the highest quality printing process in the industry. The process
produces prints with rich, smooth solids without the streaking found in lesser
quality prints. Actual inks are used, not toner. The look and feel of any
offset product comes across as more professional.
