Printing technology is not as common and familiar to most of us as engineering and medical does. Printing technology is something that includes a process to be covered for imprinting images and texts onto a plate (called as impression) by majorly using templates or a master form. Every day we see around us, a varied printed material in the form of newspapers, magazines, brochures, catalogues, advertisements, posters, billboards, hoardings, boxes & cartons & much more. All these are the means of spreading some or other content to large group of people. Printing is all about creating a vehicle for particular information to spread. Printing technology derived out of the need for information to be spread on a large scale i.e. ‘publishing’ the information. The material to be spread hand to hand has to be produced on either paper or similar medium called substrate. For a layman point of view printing is just means to get identical copies in numbers. For a technical point printing is transferring ink on a substrate from a source. Courses for this field are usually taken in the form of post secondary certificate, degree or a diploma. Following is a list of courses that are usually offered in this program/ course: Offset printing: Offset printing is a widely used printing technique where the inked image is transferred (or “offset”) from a plate first to a rubber blanket, then to the printing surface. Screen printing: In screen printing, the printing ink is pressed onto the substrate through a screen or a stencil. For this a squeegee is drawn across the printing form, which forces the ink through the screen’s open mesh. Letterpress printing: On letterpress printing press the printing areas are higher than the non-printing areas. A right-reading negative film that is subjected to ultra-violet radiations in contact with a carrier plate coated with a polymer sable layer serves as the copy master for direct letterpress printing. Opportunities that could be opted whilst after a printing technology course are as follows: • Publishing houses under central and State Govt. • Printing Presses under Central and State govt. • Commercial printing presses doing Offset, Flexography, Gravure and Screen printing • Publishing houses in private sector • Security printing • Software solution for print industry • Pre-press solution for printing Industry • Designing and digital printing • Electronic publishing • Color management solution • Packaging • Print finishing and converting • Machine manufacturing /service • Marketing/management executive • Research and development • Total quality control Following is a list of colleges that offer a wide variety in this course: 1.
