Periodical Printing

The main indicator to differentiate printing machines is paper. Machines designed to print on sheets of paper are called sheet-fed machines and machines that print on rolled paper (rolls of paper) are called web-fed presses. Large-format advertising publications (magazines, catalogs, brochures, customer leaflets and direct mail) and newspapers are produced on web-fed printing machines. Heatset printing technology is mainly used for printing magazines and catalogs, and Coldset technology is used to print newspapers.
