What is litho printing?

Lithography was invented in 1796 by a German Author and Actor with the aim to create cheap theatrical works in wax. However, today, litho print is made from polymer coatings which are applied to flexible metal plates, usually made from aluminium.

The lithography process involves a flat stone plate which is rough and etched slightly then divided up into hydrophilic areas with a film of water, therefore repelling the greasy ink. Hydrophobic areas repel the water and accept the ink as the surface tension is greater on the greasy image region, this remains dry and this becomes the process of lithography.
