Print Types
offset lithography
the most common printing method in the industry, most printers use it to save ink and limit set up time. More affordable and cost-effective for your color printing requirements. offset the ink from metal plates to a rubber cylinder and then transfer it to the paper stock
thermography
this method produces raised image that you see mostly in stationaries. what the printer does is use a special powder or dust that easily sticks to wet ink. then they apply heat to blend the ink and powder to form the raised image.
letterpress
created by Gutenberg, considered one of the first and original printing methods of all time. gave birth to the concept of relief printing, where the image being printed is raised from the surface. however, the method is slowly becoming obsolete with the new and much faster methods being introduced in the market today
digital printing
most popular printing method since its introduction. very effective since it reduces the time to complete the printing process. it doesn't need films or plates anymore what it does is transfer the digital file directly to the printing press with the help of a computer. its relatively fast and customers can rely on it to meet deadlines and schedules
electrostatic printing
similar to photocopying, this method lets the color attach to a drum and is blended with the paper with the application of heat. similar to digital printing as it also provides cost effective production of short print runs
