Risograph Printing Resources

The Risograph, often referred to as “Riso”, is a digital image duplicator that operates much like an automatic screen printer capable of producing a large number of prints both quickly and inexpensively. The prints themselves have a very distinct tactile quality that is impossible to duplicate on an inkjet or laser printer.
