This is a great short clip on what a off set Heidelberg 6 color press looks like and how it runs, notice the colors of ink and notice they start with a large sheet, once it's finished printing then it goes to cutting etc...

Printing in general
Hi all!
I'm going to start to post some basics about printing on commercial printers. Meaning Vista Print type Co's exactly what we do at Print4aPet.com keep in mind that the first thing to understand is the type of printing that is done with commercial machines. In home or office printer ( HP, Canon, inkjet type or say a office Xerox Laser type is not the same) commercial printers use huge multi million dollar machines like this baby the Heidelberg press 1.8million.
These are commonly called litho offset printers. So the basic point to remember is you print a color spectrum called CMYK More detail on my next blog !
Look forward to sharing more tips.
