Have u ever wonder what would happen if there were no printing machines.
Back in old days when printing machines were not there if we need to make a copy of some thing we need to rewrite the same matter for no of times to make same no of copy.
To solve this problem Johannes Gutenberg invented the Movable type of printing. Every year 24 February is celebrated as World Printing Day. He is known as the father of printing.
In this paper,ink and printing images were used as the equipment.
Ink is applied to the engraved text (type) and wet paper was placed on it to create printing impression.
One of such printing Machine is at jalna.
Due to morden computer printing this is not much in use but still they have this machine in working condition.
I tried to print some matter with the help of the shop owner.
Example of matter made which is ready for printing.
Lets share if have seen such printing Machine and your experience also share there location if still they are in running condition.
Getting a chance to see a manual printing machine today is incredible.
Excellent photos and labels for local guides @Ru_pali4
I’d love to have these unique LG prints
The last time I saw these was in a small printing press in Sillod, back in 1985.
Exciting to see this museum stuff - still in use
Ich habe vor Jahren mal eine Zeitung in Essen besichtigt und dabei die riesigen Druckmaschinen für die Zeitung gesehen. @Ru_pali4
Interessant war es allemal, nur weiß ich nicht ob Zeitungen auch heute noch so gedruckt werden.
Until 1997, I had my publications printed at a manual printing press similar to the one shown in your post, located in Kanpur. It was a tough task at that time, but they always printed without any errors based on my experience. Great! Thank you for sharing, @Ru_pali4 Congratulations for your discovery
I have never seen this manual printing process in person but this post provides a wealth of information on the topic and has inspired me to research it further.
