To reduce the energy required upon application of oleophilic or hydrophilic substances, respectively, on a printing or forme cylinder (1, 11) by a thermo transfer process, the cylinder is hollow and made of a radiation transmissive material, such as glass or glass ceramic, and radiation sources (8; 18, 19, 20, 21) are located at the inside thereof, directed, at least to the region of the application of the substances by the thermo transfer process; additional radiation sources may be located ahead of and behind the thermo transfer system (2-6) to preheat the region of thermo transfer, and/or to other circumferential regions to set or burn off or soften the substances, if desired, for subsequent removal and erasing of the information on the cylinder.
