DEFINITION

Classification: 101/130

(under the class definition) Process or apparatus of printing from a surface not depending upon differences in elevation, but (A) which surface has been treated so as to be ink-repellent except where an ink-attractive configuration has been placed thereon, or (B) on which surface an ink design has been prepared which will give off multiple impressions without re-inking.

(1) Note. Within the meaning of this subclass the term "planos:graphic" does not include printing from plain or smooth surfaces in which the design is first printed or otherwise delineated on the surface in ink and then transferred by impression to the surface to the printed on and the operation repeated for each impression. Operations of the latter sort are herein designated "transfer-printing" and classified as such under the appropriate main divisions, such as "Multi-color, Intaglio, Rolling-Contact Machines," etc.
