Abstract
The present invention provides a printing blanket which includes a first compressive layer which is porous and seamless, a non-expansion layer formed by spirally winding a wire in a circumferential direction of the blanket so that a distance between adjacent wires is not more than 0.5 mm, a second compressive layer which is porous and seamless, a surface printing layer which is seamless and non-compressive, and a cylindrical sleeve to be fit over a blanket cylinder, wherein these layers are laminated in this order on the outer peripheral surface of this cylindrical sleeve directly or through a seamless adhesive layer. According to this printing blanket, piling caused at the time of high-speed printing is inhibited and printing can be performed in high productivity.
