D’après l’expédition, APM OOc 418.1.

(15) We didn’t buy a lithographic press in Paris, because Fr Champagnat has one. We have been warned on foreign missions that these presses are of more hindrance than help in countries where the necessary materials for their use are not to be found easily; this is especially so when items are needed to repair them in case of breakdown. I just arranged to buy a small press to copy letters. That is the advice of the Foreign Mission Society and of the Picpus [Fathers] that the Society of Mary would do better to train a few people in the old way of printing and to send out a letterpress with the next group of missionaries. We must not forget that a press of that kind is most useful in our countries where the Methodists make use of it to circulate their heretical teachings.
