History
artisans inscribed on flat stones using an oily ink & used that stone as a printing plate
images were carried on the stone by keeping water in the non-image areas, therefor, keeping the ink to stay in the image areas

modern lithography plates work using the same basic principle, ink receptive coating on the plates is activated only on the image areas
40–60% of printing jobs are done using offset lithography

an image on a plate cylinder was accidently transferred to a rubber blanket on the impression cylinder and then onto a piece of paper running through the press
the result was a crisp, sharp image
