Let's get technical
What is Offset Printing?
Offset printing is a widely used technique where the inked image is transferred from a plate to a rubber blanket and then onto the printing surface.
This method is particularly effective for producing high-quality prints in large quantities, making it ideal for newspapers, magazines, brochures, and books.
How Offset Printing Works
The process begins with creating a printing plate, typically made of metal, which holds the image to be printed.
Ink rollers apply ink to the image areas of the plate, while a water roller applies a water-based coating to the non-image areas.
This combination of ink and water ensures that only the image areas receive ink, allowing for precise and clean prints.
Advantages of Offset Printing
- High-Quality Output: Offset printing produces sharp, clean images and text with excellent color accuracy and detail, making it ideal for projects that require a professional and eye-catching appearance.
- Cost-Effective for Large Runs: This method is economically viable for large print runs, as the cost per unit decreases with volume.
- Versatility: Offset printing can be used on various surfaces, including paper, cardboard, and plastic, making it a versatile printing technique for different types of packaging.
- Consistent Quality: Once set up, offset printing can produce consistent, high-quality prints throughout the entire run, ensuring uniformity across all copies.
Applications of Offset Printing
Offset printing is commonly employed for producing materials such as:
- Newspapers and Magazines: Its ability to handle large volumes makes it ideal for periodicals.
- Brochures and Catalogs: High-quality prints are essential for marketing materials.
- Books and Stationery: The precision and quality are perfect for publishing.
Considerations
While offset printing offers numerous benefits, it is best suited for large print runs due to initial setup costs. For smaller quantities, digital printing may be more cost-effective.
Offset printing is a reliable and efficient method for producing high-quality prints in large quantities, making it a preferred choice for various printing needs.

Frequently asked questions
What’s the difference between digital and offset printing?
As a general rule, larger quantities are more suited to Offset printing and smaller quantities that are needed in a faster turnaround suit digital printing.
Of course there are exceptions to the rule, talk to your Scotts representative to work out what is right for you.
Digital printing and offset printing are two popular methods used in the printing industry.
While both techniques produce high-quality prints, there are some key differences between them.
Digital printing is a modern printing method that involves transferring digital files directly onto the printing surface.
It uses advanced technology to print images and text with precision and accuracy. This method is ideal for smaller quantities of prints, as it offers a quick turnaround time.
Digital printing is also cost-effective for short print runs, as there are no setup costs involved.
Additionally, it allows for customisation and personalisation, making it suitable for variable data printing, such as personalised direct mail campaigns or individualised marketing materials.
Offset Printing Perth
On the other hand, offset printing is a traditional printing technique that involves transferring ink from a plate to a rubber blanket, and then onto the printing surface.
It is best suited for larger quantities of prints, as the setup costs are higher but the per-unit cost decreases with higher volumes.
Offset printing offers a wide range of colour options and produces vibrant and consistent prints.
It is commonly used for commercial printing, such as brochures, catalogues, and magazines.
Things to consider
When deciding between digital and offset printing, it is important to consider your specific printing needs.
If you require a small quantity of prints with a quick turnaround, digital printing is the way to go.
However, if you need a large volume of prints and can afford a slightly longer production time, offset printing may be more cost-effective in the long run.
Ultimately, the choice between digital and offset printing depends on factors such as quantity, turnaround time, budget, and desired print quality.
Consulting with a printing professional, like Scotts, can help you determine the best printing method for your specific requirements.
We can provide expert advice and guidance to ensure that your prints are produced efficiently and meet your expectations.
