Explanation:
Patented *Short Inking Unit*
see: http://www.metronic.co.uk/prod_cards.htm
The OC 200 is based on the principle of waterless offset printing. The transmission of ink is effected by Anilox rollers. This printing method guarantees an absolute even transmission of ink and also a very high and constant printing quality for the complete run.
While printing, an additional adjustment of ink is no longer necessary. During the initial printing process, the amount of waste cards is limited to a minimum.
