The typical flexographic press consists of an ink tray filled with a thin, rapidly drying ink that is transferred by a fountain roller to an anilox roller, a doctor blade then removes the surplus ink leaving ink in the recessed cells which is then transferred to the plate cylinder. The substrate picks up the ink from the plate cylinder, and is held in position by the impression cylinder.
