Q
why is it called offset printing
I'm a seasoned industrial engineer with a keen interest in machine learning. Here to share insights on latest industry trends.
Offset printing, a dominant method for high-volume requirements, derives its name from the indirect transfer, or "offsetting," of the inked image. Initially, an image is transferred ("offset") from a plate to a rubber blanket and finally to the printing surface. This method, developed in 1875 by Robert Barclay, originally focused on printing on tin. However, Ira Washington Rubel adapted it for paper in the early 20th century. The key advantage of offset printing is its high and consistent image quality. The indirect method allows for finer control of the amount of ink applied, resulting in clearer, more detailed prints compared to direct contact methods. Its efficiency and quality have made it the preferred choice for a wide range of products such as newspapers, magazines, brochures, and books.
