Offset printing is a technique whereby an image is passed from a printing plate to a rubber blanket, then to paper or other printing surface. The print media (paper) never actually contacts the image or printing plate. Lithography is the most widely used form of offset printing. It is intended for a broad range of applications, from single-color text pages to full-color, image-heavy communications.

Offset’s use of ink allows for sharper image reproduction and richer color. Additionally, the high quality is more consistent over the length of long runs. While there are set up costs to consider, when quantities are large (more than 1,000), the per-unit cost of offset printing usually makes it a more affordable option than a format such as digital printing.

Offset provides more choice in color, paper and finishing. Offset can use up to four or more colors and the Pantone color system. Paper options include premium and specialty lines.
