offset: A technique of printing where the inked image or text is
transferred from a plate to a rubber blanket, and finally to surface of a page or
paper, thus "off-setting" the print.There were two main kinds of off-set printing - one used in 1875 in England for printing on tin, and in 1904 in the United States for use with printing on paper.
