5. Finishing Skills – History of Print Relief printing: ink lies on a raised surface but not in the grooves, and is transferred to paper by pressure. Woodcut and letterpress are examples. Substrate: Any surface onto which you can print. Eg. Paper and plastic.

16. Intaglio printing process: Images are scratched into a surface where the ink remains. The image is printed onto damp paper under pressure. Plates were first copper then steel and the etching was first done by sharp instruments then acid. Engraving, mezzotint and etching are examples.

20. Planographic printing process: is based on the principle that oil and water do not mix. It is a versatile process that all happens on a flat surface. Plates were first stone then metal. Offset lithography (litho) is an example. Greasy ink is transferred from a dampened plate onto a rubber or plastic blanket and then to paper. P190 ‘Production for Graphic Designers’ by Allan Pipes, 4yh Edition published by Laurence King Publishing BBCD Melbourne BAPDCOM Version 1 - October,

21. Plate: a metal or plastic sheet with photo sensitive face onto which an image is chemically etched changing the characteristics of the surface or cutting below the surface. Blanket: the intermediate rubber roller on an off-set lithography press which transfers the image from the plate to the paper. BBCD Melbourne BAPDCOM Version 1 - October,

23. Offset Lithography: Offset Printers are commercial printing machines, that can either be called “Web Offset” or “Sheet-fed Offset” depending on the source of paper that they use BBCD Melbourne BAPDCOM Version 1 - October,

24. Web Offset Lithography: Is a form of offset printing in which a continuous roll of paper is fed through the printing press. Pages are separated and cut to size after they have been printed. Web offset printing is used for high-volume publications such as mass-market books, magazines, newspapers, catalogs and brochures. There are two methods of web offset printing, known as heatset and coldset. BBCD Melbourne BAPDCOM Version 1 - October,

25. Heatset Web offset printing is a printing process in which ink is dried rapidly by forced-air heating. BBCD Melbourne BAPDCOM Version 1 - October,

26. Coldset Web offset printing is a web offset printing process in which ink is allowed to dry naturally through evaporation and absorption BBCD Melbourne BAPDCOM Version 1 - October,

28. Sheet-fed offset printing is a method in which individual pages of paper are fed into the machine, as opposed to continuous rolls of paper used on web presses. Sheet-fed presses come in different sizes. BBCD Melbourne BAPDCOM Version 1 - October,

29. What type of projects would this type of printer normally print?

33. Computer to plate Digital Offset Printing involves Computer-to-plate (CTP) a technology that allows the imaging of metal or polyester plates without the use of film (which was a more labour intensive process). Most CTP systems use thermal imaging, though some use violet light based systems BBCD Melbourne BAPDCOM Version 1 - October,

34. Screen printing process: a stencil is supported on a mesh or screen; ink is forced through the open mesh but is prevented from meeting the non-image areas of the paper by a stencil. Silk screen printing is an example. P190 ‘Production for Graphic Designers’ by Allan Pipes, 4yh Edition published by Laurence King Publishing BBCD Melbourne BAPDCOM Version 1 - October,

37. Digital printing Commercial Digital Print was introduced c. 1993
Digital printing Commercial Digital Print was introduced c Instead of printing to metal plates, the E-Print created a latent image on the Photo Imaging Plate (PIP) through the use of an elecrostatic charge. This charged area would then attract the charged ElectroInk, which would in turn be transferred to the ITM or blanket, and then again transfer from the blanket to the paper or other substrate. Because 100% of the ink transfers from PIP to blanket to substrate, a different image and color could be printed with each rotation of the press. BBCD Melbourne BAPDCOM Version 1 - October,

41. Digital printing Digital printing allows for “Print on Demand” (POD) delivery, eliminating the need to print hundreds or thousands of objects before going to market BBCD Melbourne BAPDCOM Version 1 - October,

42. Digital printing Objects that are commonly used in POD projects include books and t-shirts / apparel. BBCD Melbourne BAPDCOM Version 1 - October,

43. Digital printing This POD unit has two printers as well as a collator and a binder. A book can be produced within 5 – 20 minutes, depending on the number of pages. BBCD Melbourne BAPDCOM Version 1 - October,

44. Digital printing Internet based companies such as Red Bubble allow for one-off tshirts to be produced to quality standards similar to screen printing BBCD Melbourne BAPDCOM Version 1 - October,

What do you think are the advantages of Digital vs. the other methods of printing mentioned? What are the disadvantages? BBCD Melbourne BAPDCOM Version 1 - October,

46. Advantages of Digital Shorter turnaround
Advantages of Digital Shorter turnaround. More accuracy, less waste and fewer variations. Cheaper low volume printing. While the unit cost of each piece may be higher than with offset printing, when setup costs are included digital printing provides lower per unit costs for very small print runs. Customisable - Text and graphics can be changed on each piece without stopping or slowing down the press. For example, personalized letters can be printed with a different name and address on each letter BBCD Melbourne BAPDCOM Version 1 - October,

47. Advantages of Traditional Offset High image quality
Advantages of Traditional Offset High image quality. Works on a wide range of substrates including paper, wood, cloth, metal, leather, rough paper and plastic. Cheaper for large quantities While today’s digital presses are close to the cost/benefit ratio of offset for high quality work, they are not yet able to compete with the volume an offset press can produce. Many modern offset presses use computer-to-plate systems as opposed to the older computer-to-film work flows, further increasing quality. BBCD Melbourne BAPDCOM Version 1 - October,
