Overview

Offset presses are printing machines widely used for high-volume commercial printing jobs like newspapers, magazines, brochures, and books. They operate by transferring ink from a plate to a rubber blanket, then onto the printing surface. Known for their high-quality output and efficiency, offset presses can handle a variety of paper types and sizes, making them essential for professional print shops.
