Hi there, i´m new here and I think this is the best place to ask a nooby question, so here we go:
On what print method the image below was printed for you? Since there is no white tint (or is not so common) this is printed over traditional offset? so, lots of red? or the paper was red and isnt white thenfore is this digital printed? :D
Hope you understand my english and sorry if you think this is sooo nooob.
Thanks.

yes offset printed; CMYK or maybe spot inks.
white in print jobs is almost always the paper color... unless its white on an obvious colored paper stock.

Ok, clear! maybe the red is spot ink, so Offset seems the right answer - thanks to all. Another question coming to my mind now is: Since offset if for a large production quantity, how do you manage in case you need to do some print work as personal, that dont requierd 5000+ copies?

No ideas?

Laser prints. Visit your local print shop, they should be able to do them.

But dont you think on Laser print this red ink background will loose lots of quality?

Depends on the printer, I had some jobs printed with a solid color background such as the one you posted and the quality was excellent. I had the same jobs printed somewhere else on the a similar printer and the color came out with dirt spots and faded. It's a good idea to get a sample proof first.
