You can watch the process yourself: https://youtu.be/WvFED55xhv8

It is rolled from side to side, but apparently multiple rows at once.
What I thought I remembered was a tiny roller that made a row. (Which
would still be far faster than saferus.

In either case, what R' Abadi is really doing (as opposed to that broken
memory) would still be no /worse/ than a manual printing press, which
the AhS apparently said would be okay.

Tir'u baTov!
