This technique uses a rubber or plastic printing surface and a direct printing technique, in which the printing

surface transfers the ink directly to the print surface.

The basic principle of this technique is that there are printing and nonprinting surfaces on a printing plate. The plate cylinder does not receive ink and does not touch the substrate directly.

With this technique the printing areas are engraved or etched on the cylinder.

This technique is when ink is pressed through the cloth with a doctor blade and transferred to the material that is

being printed.

This is based on a technique that changes a solid to a gas to transfer from a plastic film or metal foil to the substrate.

This technique involves small drops of ink sprayed onto a paper surface.

This technique is based on the image carrier having printing areas separated from nonprinting areas by a difference

in elevation, just like a stamp.
