Image description

David Napier, Scottish engineer, mid 19th century. Plaster bust. David Napier (1785-1873) was instrumental in the development of printing machinery in the 19th century. Napier introduced an automatic inking device, the first printing machine to Ireland, and his cylinder machine was the first in North America. In 1824 Napier was commissioned by Thomas Hansard, a printer of Parliamentery debates, to make a press which printed on both sides. The result was the 'Nay-Peer' . In 1830 Napier and Son introduced the most popular press, an improved form of bed and platen press one remained in use at the Oxford University Press into the 20th century. ©SSPL/Science Museum
