A printing apparatus and a printing method for applying ink to a surface of a printing plate in a predetermined pattern and then transfer the ink applied in the shape of the pattern to a substrate. A scale is formed on the surface of the printing plate; the printing apparatus includes a plate cylinder on which the printing plate is provided, an image recording section that applies the ink to the surface of the printing plate in the predetermined pattern by an ink jet method, a reading unit that reads the scale and obtains position information data of the scale, a signal generation part that generates a signal based on the position information data obtained by the reading unit, and an adjustment part that adjusts an ejection timing of the ink in the image recording section on the basis of the signal obtained by the signal generation part.

A gravure printing plate includes a convex portion and two or more polygonal cells partitioned by the convex portion, and including at least one protruding portion disposed at an edge of each of the at least two polygonal cells and extending toward a central portion of the corresponding cell therefrom.

Disclosed is related to a printing device for performing a multi-color gravure offset printing operation in one rotation of a gravure offset roll for various shapes of printing material, and a method therefor. The printing device includes at least: a blanket roll having a cylindrical shape and moving in a first direction while rotating; an ink transfer unit including one or more ink transfer plates which is in contact with a lower end of the blanket roll; a squeeze unit moving in a second direction in a state in which one end thereof comes in contact with the ink transfer plate, wherein the second direction forms a predetermined angle with respect to the first direction or is orthogonal to the first direction. According to the present invention, an effect of enabling gravure offset printing in one printing cycle on various shapes of printing material is provided.

Disclosed is related to a printing device for performing a multi-color gravure offset printing operation in one rotation of a gravure offset roll for various shapes of printing material, and a method therefor. The printing device includes at least: a blanket roll having a cylindrical shape and moving in a first direction while rotating; an ink transfer unit including one or more ink transfer plates which is in contact with a lower end of the blanket roll; a squeeze unit moving in a second direction in a state in which one end thereof comes in contact with the ink transfer plate, wherein the second direction forms a predetermined angle with respect to the first direction or is orthogonal to the first direction. According to the present invention, an effect of enabling gravure offset printing in one printing cycle on various shapes of printing material is provided.
