= platen jobber, platen, platen machine, flat-platen machine.

Ex. The platen jobber was a simple machine for dealing with the minor jobs such as billheads and cards for which the hand-press was too slow and the full-sized printing machine too large to be economic.

Ex. But the early cylinder machines worked less accurately than the platens, tending to slur the impression and batter the type.

Ex. Finally, most of the platen machines were themselves replaced during the 1860s and 1870s by cylinder machines.

Ex. Koenig had a flat-platen machine working after a fashion in 1811, and a prototype cylinder machine in 1812 = Koenig ya en 1811 tenía una máquina de presión plana que más o menos funcionaba y un prototipo de máquina rotativa en 1812.
