- Print Resolution: The measure of the detail and clarity of a printed image, usually expressed in dots per inch (dpi). Higher dpi values generally indicate better print quality.
- CMYK: Stands for cyan, magenta, yellow, and black. It's the standard color model used in most printing processes to create a full range of colors by combining these four inks.
- Plate: In offset and some other printing methods, a plate is a surface on which the image to be printed is prepared. The plate transfers the ink to the substrate either directly or via an intermediate step. >
- Inkjet: A printing technology where ink is sprayed through tiny nozzles onto the substrate. Inkjet printers are known for their ability to print high - quality color images.
- Laser Printing: A printing method that uses a laser beam to create an electrostatic image on a drum, which then attracts toner particles that are transferred to the substrate and fused with heat.
