About this title

From the Back Cover

Fundamentals of Lithographic Printing is the most comprehensive book available on the science of lithography. Written by an engineer, it will appeal to engineers entering the industry, to workers in the field, and to students training for a career in printing. This edition emphasizes single-color sheetfed printing, covering in detail these topics: cylinders, blankets, plates, rollers, inking systems, and dampening systems. An entire section is devoted to the unique features of web printing and another to non-traditional forms of lithography, including waterless printing.

About the Author

John MacPhee, an engineer with a career in research and development that spans 45 years, has worked for Baldwin Technology, where he was a co-inventor of the pad-type automatic blanket cleaner and the Delta dampener.
