We print with a cylinder press such as a Vandercook or Heidelberg KSBA when there is a larger graphic area to print. The typical platen press or “clamshell” style press doesn’t have the guts to print a large solid. The impressional strength of a cylinder press provides more evenness to solid areas and also has a more robust inking system.
