gripper edge


Explanation:
Gripper Edge = the leading edge of paper that moves through a printing press or folding machine. No printing can take place on the outside 3/8" of the paper on the gripper edge. see also gripper.
Prise en pince = En impression offset, bande de papier non imprimable, nécessaire pour que les pinces de la presse offset puissent prendre les feuilles. Il est donc nécessaire de prévoir cette zone lors de la réalisation de votre maquette
