Near letter-quality ( NLQ) printing is a process where dot matrix printers produce high-quality text by using multiple passes to produce higher dot density. [1] The tradeoff for the improved print quality is reduced printing speed. Software can also be used to produce this effect. [2] [3] The term was coined in the 1980s to distinguish NLQ ...
Cost-effective run length Offset printing: rollers 1 MPa 40–100 Pa·s 0.5–1.5 μm high print quality > 5,000 (A3 trim size, sheet-fed) > 30,000 (A3 trim size, web-fed) Rotogravure: rollers 3 MPa 50–200 mPa·s 0.8–8 μm thick ink layers possible, excellent image reproduction, edges of letters and lines are jagged > 500,000
The newspaper production process begins with gathering news stories, articles, opinions, advertorials and advertisements to printing and folding of the hard copy. Usually, the news items are printed onto newsprint. The whole production process can be divided into four parts: Content gathering, Pre-press, Press and Post-press.
Digital printing is a method of printing from a digital -based image directly to a variety of media. [1] It usually refers to professional printing where small-run jobs from desktop publishing and other digital sources are printed using large-format and/or high-volume laser or inkjet printers. Digital printing has a higher cost per page than ...
A blueprint is a reproduction of a technical drawing or engineering drawing using a contact print process on light-sensitive sheets introduced by Sir John Herschel in 1842. [1] The process allowed rapid and accurate production of an unlimited number of copies. It was widely used for over a century for the reproduction of specification drawings ...
Variable data printing (VDP) (also known as variable information printing (VIP) or variable imaging (VI)) is a form of digital printing, including on-demand printing, in which elements such as text, graphics and images may be changed from one printed piece to the next, without stopping or slowing down the printing process and using information from a database or external file.
A video showing an inkjet printer while printing a page. In computing, a printer is a peripheral machine which makes a durable representation of graphics or text, usually on paper. [1] While most output is human-readable, bar code printers are an example of an expanded use for printers. [2]
Dot matrix printing, [1] sometimes called impact matrix printing, is a computer printing process in which ink is applied to a surface using a relatively low-resolution dot matrix for layout. Dot matrix printers are a type of impact printer that prints using a fixed number of pins or wires [2] [3] and typically use a print head that moves back ...
