It also depends on the method, expertise and the equipments used for printing.

The simple technique of offset printing involves putting images on plate, and then these are dampened by water. After this, they are dampened by ink. The ink adheres to the image area. This fills colours in the image. The rest of the area, i.e. the non image area is dampened by water. After this, the transferring of image is done. The inked image is transferred to the rubber blanket. This is then transferred to paper. This gives the name ‘offset’ to the process. Here, the image is not directly transferred to the paper. It is first printed on a plate, transferred to rubber blanket, and then finally to paper.
