The diagram illustrates how to print newspaper by a method called ‘liphograghy’.

The process of
printings newspaper includes five main stages, begin with non-image paper and end with printed paper.

Firstly, the plate is passed through dampening rollers. The role of this stage is dampening the area of
paper do not have image. Secondly, the plate passes through a set of ink rollers to make the ink onto the
image area on paper. Thirdly, the plate goes through the blanket cylinder. This is to remove the water
and the inked image area is picked up. After that, the plate passes through the impression cylinder. The
paper then runs between the impression cylinder and blanket cylinder. In this stage, the image is printed
onto the paper. Finally, the paper is moved on the automatic line and at that point, the paper is dried by
cold and hot dryers to become the final product.
