2.2 Offset Press vs. Digital imagePRESS
Offset printing
is a technique that transfers (or “offsets”) an inked image from a
plate to a rubber blanket, and then to the printing surface. This enables the offset
press to maintain a consistent and high image quality over long print runs because
the plate never touches the paper. The process requires a substantial investment
in equipment and setup expense to achieve these results.
A
digital press
uses an electrostatic process to produce “offset-like” image quality
at a fraction of the cost of an offset press. In the imagePRESS 1125P digital press,
the drum is imaged; the toner is applied, and then transferred to the ITB
(Intermediate Transfer Belt). The ITB then transfers the toner to the paper in one
single pass. The small toner particle size provides high print quality with crisp thin
lines, high quality characters, smooth corners, and clean gradient transitions,
closer to that of an offset press.
