  2. Print permanence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Print_permanence

    Over time, the optical density, color balance, lustre, and other qualities of a print will degrade. The rate at which deterioration occurs depends primarily on two main factors: the print itself, that is, the colorants used to form the image and the medium on which image resides, and the type of environment the print is exposed to.

  3. Bleed (printing) - Wikipedia

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

    In printing, bleed is printing that goes beyond the edge of where the sheet will be trimmed. In other words, the bleed is the area to be trimmed off. The bleed is the part on the side of a document that gives the printer a small amount of space to account for natural movement of the paper during guillotining, [1] and design inconsistencies ...

    PLA objects can be fabricated by 3D printing, casting, injection moulding, extrusion, machining, and solvent welding. PLA filament for use in 3D printing. PLA is used as a feedstock material in desktop fused filament fabrication by 3D printers, such as RepRap printers. [39] [40] PLA can be solvent welded using dichloromethane. [41]

  5. Printer (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printer_(computing)

    In each case, to print a line, precisely timed hammers strike against the back of the paper at the exact moment that the correct character to be printed is passing in front of the paper. The paper presses forward against a ribbon which then presses against the character form and the impression of the character form is printed onto the paper.

  6. Line drawing algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_drawing_algorithm

    Single color line drawing algorithms involve drawing lines in a single foreground color onto a background. They are well-suited for usage with monochromatic displays. The starting point and end point of the desired line are usually given in integer coordinates, so that they lie directly on the points considered by the algorithm.

  7. Whiteprint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whiteprint

    Whiteprinting replaced the blueprint process for reproducing architectural and engineering drawings because the process was simpler and involved fewer toxic chemicals. A blue-line print is not permanent and will fade if exposed to light for weeks or months, but a drawing print that lasts only a few months is sufficient for many purposes.

  8. Line art - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_art

    Line art or line drawing is any image that consists of distinct straight lines or curved lines placed against a background (usually plain). Two-dimensional or three-dimensional objects are often represented through shade (darkness) or hue . Line art can use lines of different colors, although line art is usually monochromatic.

  9. 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 ...
