  2. Printing registration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printing_registration

    In printing, registration black is a black color that includes 100% of each of the process colors used. Typically these are cyan, magenta, yellow and black , [4] but if different colors are used, registration black marks are made with all of the colorants (inks). [4] Registration black is used for printing crop marks and registration marks ...

  3. Trap (printing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trap_(printing)

    The trap is not visible since the lighter color is spread underneath the—almost—opaque black. For the same reason, in many cases, black ink is set to "overprint" colors in the background, eliminating the more complex process of spreading or choking. Since black is a dark color, white gaps caused by misregistration are more visible.

  4. CMYK color model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CMYK_color_model

    Four-color printing uses black ink in addition to subtractive primaries for several reasons: [2] In traditional preparation of color separations, a red keyline on the black line art marked the outline of solid or tint color areas. In some cases a black keyline was used when it served as both a color indicator and an outline to be printed in ...

  5. CcMmYK color model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CcMmYK_color_model

    The ink cartridges used are also shown. CcMmYK, sometimes referred to as CMYKLcLm or CMYKcm, is a six-color printing process used in some inkjet printers optimized for photo printing. [1] It complements the more common four-color CMYK process, which uses only cyan, magenta, yellow and black, by adding light cyan and light magenta.

  6. Powder bed and inkjet head 3D printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powder_bed_and_inkjet_head...

    Binder jet 3D printing, known variously as "Powder bed and inkjet" and "drop-on-powder" printing, is a rapid prototyping and additive manufacturing technology for making objects described by digital data such as a CAD file. Binder jetting is one of the seven categories of additive manufacturing processes according to ASTM and ISO. [1]

  7. Printer tracking dots - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printer_tracking_dots

    Yellow dots on white paper, produced by color laser printer (enlarged, dot diameter about 0.1 mm) Printer tracking dots, also known as printer steganography, DocuColor tracking dots, yellow dots, secret dots, or a machine identification code (MIC), is a digital watermark which many color laser printers and photocopiers produce on every printed page that identifies the specific device that was ...

  8. Color bleeding (printing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_bleeding_(printing)

    In printing and graphic arts, mixing of two dissimilar colors in two adjacent printed dots before they dry and absorb in substrate is referred to as color bleeding. [1] Unless it is done for effect, color bleeding reduces print quality. Prior art applied this term to the phenomenon of single color ink following the fibers of the paper. [2]

  9. Dot matrix printing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dot_matrix_printing

    Each solenoid is connected to a lever, which is connected to a long rod, which acts as a pin at the bottom of the print head. Dot matrix printing uses a print head that moves back-and-forth, or in an up-and-down motion, on the page and prints by impact, striking an ink-soaked cloth ribbon against the paper, much like the print mechanism on a ...
