Who has information on printing?
I need to be free to join whenever the big Press!
Then, I need to buy a press, but with what materials?
I was not seeking the large printers, only small printers that can print multiple work more than 500 times, for example... to printing Business Cards, Posters and Flyers...
i do not talk about Inkjet and laserJet

First what are you planning with the press. To open own press or press own designs.
Starting a own press company need allot skills. First you need how the press works. There not the same as a inkjet printer its not 1 press ok and it prints out.
For a good press company you need allot of stuff.
Allot of ink in different colors not only Cyan Magenta Yellow and black. Then you need Ink mixer too to mix the correct pantone colors.
A mold printing machine. These print out the mold for the presses on a metal sheet.
Multiple presses could time is money. Its better to have different presses printing at once with different inks, then to use 1 press to press all color ways. Also need allot people operating them, cause the paper supply on some press are manual added and inks too.
You need to find a paper supplier and also allot of paper kinds.
For a starting designer its easier to find a printer that could press everything for them then to try to have a own print section in the companies cause don't have to print all the time. Only if you company is really big and got allot of assignment that need to be pressed and could fill the days and need to be printed 24/7 then you open a own press section in a company. If your new to everything and got a small company just find a press company.

Thank you my brother, the answer is really encouraging
But I simply seeks to print my own models in the house, I do not find a company press ... I do every time I need to print some 500 business cards for example, or less than 500, the company press ask me for 1000, or I will pay a lot of money ...
To start my own business press it to allow for skills, yes I know, but what about a small Offset? Or a printer that can print a multicolored cards, for example?
