Offset printing was invented in 1875 by Robert Barclay, but his invention was for printing on tin, not paper.
Offset lithography for printing on paper was invented by Ira Washington Rubel in 1901.
Offset printing was invented by Ira Rubel in 1904. He discovered that he could obtain a clearer image by wrapping a rubber blanket around the printing cylinder and transferring the image from plate to blanket before printing on paper.
Robert Barclay invented it for use on tin,and Ira Washington Rubel for use on paper. They both are given credit
Offset printing or web offset printing is a commonly used printing technique in which the inked image is transferred, offset. This is done from a plate to a rubber blanket, then to the printing surface.
Web offset printing machine is high-speed printing machine.
"Offset printing is a commonly used printing technique where the inked image is transferred (or "offset") from a plate to a rubber blanket, then to the printing surface."
the transfer of a beat in one drum is formed by wood cutting (technology) and it contained with offset which can obform printing
Generally when people talk about 'digital printing' it is in opposition of 'offset printing'. This can be confusing since they both begin with a digital source. Offset printing is the kind of printing that newspapers and magazines use where the print is separated into usually 4 different color plates (hence the word 'offset') whereas 'digital printing' relies on a digital file being sent to a RIP (it processes the file for the printer) then the RIP tells the printer how to squirt the ink onto the paper. No separations are needed for digital prints. The trend in printing is moving away from offset altogether, however offset's strengths have always been incredible speed (of printing) and cost effectiveness. As digital printing advances these differences diminish. HP even has a 'digital offset' printer that works like a modern digital printer, but with the capacity and speed to rival an offset printer.

It depends on your printing needs.Digital printing is more cost effective for short run, custom, or one time projects. Or if you plan to make changes on a regular basis.If you will be printing large quantities of the same design on a regular basis (EX: Flyers, letterhead, folders) then offset printing is cheaper.Gang run printing is a method used by some printing companies. They use a common printing sheet in an effort to reduce printing costs and paper waste. This process makes offset printing less expensive.
Offset printing is where an inked image is presed to two surfaces before it is printed.
The Chinese invented printing. They invented it with wood blocks
