| | Marvin's Corner: Offset Lithography |
| | This is the stage that gives "offset" printing its name. | | | Offset printing is a technique that's based on the old adage, "oil and water don't mix." It is used for almost all printing on paper, including newspapers, magazines, brochures, etc. The paper products that are inserted into CD jewel cases are printed using the offset technique, as are almost all alternative cardboard packaging materials. | | | If you need 5 inks, and you only have a 4 color press, it's necessary to break down and set up again so that you can re-feed the paper into the press for the last color. |

| | n offset lithography (also known as plantographic) printing, plates carry both the image and non-image areas on the same level (unlike letterpress where areas are raised to catch ink). | | | Because of the resilience of the rubber blanket, it's possible to use offset lithography printing on a wide variety of surfaces and for large quantities. | | | The rubber blanket then transfers the image onto the paper's surface. |
