Digital Offset Printing Properties

Traditional offset printing is the most reliable printing method that exists today. Through the years, many printing techniques have come and gone but offset remains one of the most used and the most sought after printing service available. However, because of the advent of the digital age, traditional offset printing methods only got better. The merging of digital technology and the time tested principles of offset printing results in the birth if a new and more dynamic printing service – digital offset printing.

Digital offset printing maintains the strong points that defines traditional offset and helped in making it better by bringing in different printing options that will help you overcome some of the short comings that it has. Here are some of the features if digital offset printing.

Quality materials

There are many quality materials that you can produce through this method. Brochures, business cards, posters, flyers and greeting cards are only some of the materials that you can create. Printing through this method uses the traditional CMYK color space that enables you to create a wide range of colors in your prints. The colors that you use will enanble you to make lively images that will attract attention and evoke emotions. Colors will also help you in standing out and apart from the many advertising and marketing materials that are being used.

Still the king of mass production

Even with the digital phase of production, offset printing has not lost its ability to produce large amounts of orders at a very short period of time. In fact, thanks to the digital process, there are a lot less mechanical processes that you need to go through in order to finish your prints.

The digital phase of production allows for direct to printer approach that enables you to bypass traditional pre press processes like film stripping and color separation. The digital file from the computer can be directly transported to the plate that is going to be used in printing.

As always, the impression speeds of offset printers are very fast and you can create hundreds and even thousands of prints in just minutes. Also, do not forget that one of the most popular characteristics of offset printing is that the more copies you print, the less your prints will cost per printed piece. Even with the advent of the digital age, this is still retained in offset printing and because there are less pre press processes involved, the production cost will be lower.

Longer lasting prints

The materials that you create through offset printing also retain its high quality as evidenced by the strong bond between the substrate and the ink that you use. Offset printing stamps the inks and colors in place rather than just spraying them on top of the substrate. Spraying the ink on top of the substrate creates a weak bond that results in ink chipping whenever your prints are crumpled or folded. When the inks are stamped though, this is not a problem. The bond between the substrate and the ink is so strong that you can not chip it off even if you tried to.

The Strawberry Hill Press and Its Printing House (Hardcover) $170.77 Horace Walpole`s Strawberry Hill Press, founded in 1757, is the most celebrated of the early English private presses, unique for the importance of the books, pamphlets, and ephemera it produced. This illustrated study of the Press draws on a remarkable array of surviving images of the Printing House, many of them newly discovered and previously unstudied. But more than that, this book provides an original and sustained analysis of Walpole`s extraordinary literary endeavor, and of the complex variety of purposes that the Press fulfilled. The volume not only assesses all known images to discover what they can tell us about Walpole`s Press, but also reveals that, quite unexpectedly, a large part of Walpole`s Printing House survives to this day.
