Offset printing is a widely used printing technique where the inked image is transferred (or offset) from a metal plate to a rubber blanket and then onto the printing surface, usually paper. Here’s an overview of how offset printing works:

1.Image Preparation: The content to be printed is first prepared digitally or photographically. This image is then transferred onto a printing plate using a photosensitive process.

2.Plate Making: The printing plate is usually made of aluminum or a similar material. It is treated chemically so that only the image areas attract ink while the non-image areas repel it.

3.Inking: The plate is dampened with water and ink. The ink adheres to the image areas of the plate, while the water repels ink from the non-image areas.

4.Printing Process: The inked image is then transferred from the plate to a rubber blanket and finally onto the paper or other material. This indirect transfer is what gives offset printing its name.

5.Color and Quality: Offset printing can reproduce full-color images and photographs with high fidelity. It's known for its consistent and high-quality results, making it suitable for large print runs and projects requiring vibrant colors and fine details.

6. Applications: Offset printing is commonly used for producing newspapers, magazines, brochures, stationery, books, and other printed materials in large quantities.
