3. Screen Printing Etching
Screen printing is a printing technique that
uses a woven mesh to support an ink-
blocking stencil to receive a desired image.
The attached stencil forms open areas of
mesh that transfer ink or other printable
materials which can be pressed through the
mesh as a sharp-edged image onto a
substrate. Screen printing is also a stencil
method of print making in which a design is
imposed on a screen of polyester or other
fine mesh, with blank areas coated with an
impermeable substance.
Etching is the process of using strong acid
or mordant to cut into the unprotected parts
of a metal surface to create a design
in intaglio in the metal. Linocut is
a printmaking technique, a variant
of woodcut in which a sheet of linoleum is
used for the relief surface. A design is cut
into the linoleum surface with a sharp knife,
V-shaped chisel or gouge,

4. Wood Cut Lithography
Woodcut-A relief printing artistic
technique in printmaking in which an
image is carved into the surface of a
block of wood, with the printing parts
remaining level with the surface Multiple
colours can be printed by keying the
paper to a frame around the
woodblocks. The art of carving the
woodcut can be called "xylography", but
this is rarely used in English for images
alone,
Lithography - Is a method
of printing originally based on the principle
that oil and water do not mix. Printing is
from a stone (limestone) or a metal
plate with a smooth surface. It was
invented in 1796 by German author
and actor Alois Senefelder as a cheap
method of publishing theatrical works.
In modern lithography, the image is
made of a polymer coating applied to
a flexible aluminum plate. The image
can be printed directly from the plate.

6. Letterpress printing Gravure
Letterpress printing is a technique of relief
printing using a printing press. A worker
composes and locks movable type into the
bed of a press, inks it, and presses paper
against it to transfer the ink from the type
which creates an impression on the
paper. is a technique of relief printing using
a printing press. A worker composes and
locks movable type into the bed of a
press, inks it, and presses paper against it
to transfer the ink from the type which
creates an impression on the paper.
Letterpress printing was the normal form of
printing text from its invention by Johannes
Gutenberg in the mid-15th century until the
19th century and remained in wide use for
books and other uses until the second half
of the 20th century.
Rotogravure (Roto or Gravure for
short) is a type
of intaglio printing process, which
involves engraving the image onto
an image carrier. In gravure printing,
the image is engraved onto
a cylinder because, like offset
printing and flexography, is a type

7. Screen process
Screen printing is a printing technique
that uses a woven mesh to support an
ink-blocking stencil to receive a
desired image. The attached stencil
forms open areas of mesh that
transfer ink or other printable materials
which can be pressed through the
mesh as a sharp-edged image onto a
substrate.

9. Photocopying Laser Printing
A photocopier is a machine that
makes paper copies of documents
and other visual images quickly and
cheaply. Most current photocopiers
use a technology called xerography, a
dry process that uses electrostatic
charges on a light sensitive
photoreceptor to first attract and then
transfer toner particles (a powder)
onto paper in the form of an image.
Laser printing is an electrostatic digital
printing process that rapidly produces
high quality text and graphics by
passing a laser beam over a charged
drum to define a differentially charged
image. The drum then selectively
collects charged toner and transfers
the image to paper, which is then
heated to permanently fix the image.

10. Screen process Desktop publishing
Screen printing is a printing technique
that uses a woven mesh to support an
ink-blocking stencil to receive a
desired image. The attached stencil
forms open areas of mesh that
transfer ink or other printable materials
which can be pressed through the
mesh as a sharp-edged image onto a
substrate. Screen printing is also a
stencil method of print making in
which a design is imposed on a
screen of polyester or other fine mesh,
with blank areas coated with an
impermeable substance.
Desktop publishing is the creation of
documents using page layout skills on
a personal computer. Desktop
publishing software can generate
layouts and produce typographic
quality text and images comparable to
traditional typography and printing.

11. Inkjet Printing
.
Inkjet printing is a type of computer
printing that creates a digital image by
propelling droplets of ink onto paper,
plastic, or other substrates. Inkjet
printers are the most commonly used
type of printer

Etching 1. Many circuits can
be etched at once
2. Circuits can be
very compact - the
etched tracks
replace wires and
leads
3. All etchings will be
identical and
therefore all circuits
will be identical.
the circuit needs to
be updated, then the
it will need to be re-
designed and re-
etched from scratch,
and that etching uses
some nasty
chemicals that can
be harmful to the
