Printing is one of the industries that have great impact on China's economy. At present, laser typesetting technology, a technology that mainly relied on photosensitive, still takes a leading position in China's printing industry. The laser typesetting technology requires complex processes such as exposure, development, photographic fixing, and processing, which results in the high cost and time-consuming problem, as well as serious environmental pollution due to the chemical washing process. In order to reduce such pollution, the green plate making technology based on nano-materials has been developed. The plate making process is to jet the nano-composite transfer printing materials on super hydrophilic print plate with special nano- and micro-structure. The technology has many advantages such as convenience, environmental friendly and low cost. In this paper, the research results of the nano-composite material and the print plate are presented.
