  2. Screen printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_printing

    Screen printing is a printing technique where a mesh is used to transfer ink (or dye) onto a substrate, except in areas made impermeable to the ink by a blocking stencil.A blade or squeegee is moved across the screen in a "flood stroke" to fill the open mesh apertures with ink, and a reverse stroke then causes the screen to touch the substrate momentarily along a line of contact.

  3. Plastisol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plastisol

    Plastisols are the most commonly used inks for printing designs onto garments, and are particularly useful for printing opaque graphics on dark fabrics. Plastisol inks are not water-soluble. The ink is composed of PVC particles suspended in a plasticizing emulsion, and will not dry if left in the screen for extended periods. Garments don't need ...

  4. Thermal-transfer printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal-transfer_printing

    Thermal-transfer printing is done by melting wax within the print heads of a specialized printer. The thermal-transfer print process utilises three main components: a non-movable print head, a carbon ribbon (the ink) and a substrate to be printed, which would typically be paper, synthetics, card or textile materials.

  5. Transfer paper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer_paper

    Transfer paper is a thin piece of paper coated with wax and pigment. Often, an ink-jet or other printer is used to print the image on the transfer paper. A heat press can transfer the image onto clothing, canvas, or other surface. Transfer paper is used in creating iron-ons. Transfer papers can also be used for the application of rhinestones to ...

  6. Lightfastness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightfastness

    The particle size of the inorganic pigments is often larger than that of organic pigments, thus inorganic pigments are often not suitable to be used in offset printing. [15] In screen printing, the particle size of the pigment is not the limiting factor. Thus it is the preferred printing method for printing jobs requiring extreme lightfastness.

  7. Dye-sublimation printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dye-sublimation_printing

    Dye-sublimation printing (or dye-sub printing) is a term that covers several distinct digital computer printing techniques that involve using heat to transfer dye onto a substrate. The sublimation name was first applied because the dye was thought to make the transition between the solid and gas states without going through a liquid stage. This ...

  8. Iron-on - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron-on

    A logo applied to a canvas backpack, using fabric transfer paper in a desktop ink jet printer. Iron-on transfers are images that can be imprinted on fabric. They are frequently used to print onto T-shirts. On one side is paper, and on the other is the image that will be transferred in reverse. The image is printed with iron-on transfer inks. [1]

  9. Transfer printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer_printing

    Transfer printing is a method of decorating pottery or other materials using an engraved copper or steel plate from which a monochrome print on paper is taken which is then transferred by pressing onto the ceramic piece. [1] Pottery decorated using this technique is known as transferware or transfer ware.
