    2. History Invented in the Italian renaissance 1300s It wasn’t until photography was invented that gravure came into practical use. In 1940 Karl Klic and Samuel Fawcett refined the gravure printing process by reworking the mechanics into a rotary system. Because they couldn’t afford a patent for their new technology they sold their prints as the old hetogravure prints instead of rotogravure. It was a secret until someone from the company moved to America and publicized the process.

    3. Intaglio Printing Press The Gravure Press is a form of Intaglio printing. This is where the print is engraved into a cylinder of copper. The engravings are tiny honeycomb shaped cells. The cylinder turns in a big bowl of ink called an ‘ink pan’
