2. Screen printing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_printing

   Screen printing is a printing technique where a mesh is used to transfer ink (or dye) onto a substrate, except in areas made impermeable to the ink by a blocking stencil.A blade or squeegee is moved across the screen to fill the open mesh apertures with ink, and a reverse stroke then causes the screen to touch the substrate momentarily along a line of contact.

3. Dye-sublimation printing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dye-sublimation_printing

   e. 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.

4. Water transfer printing - Wikipedia

   A hydro dipped automotive wheel rim. Water transfer printing, also known as immersion printing, water transfer imaging, hydro dipping, watermarbling, cubic printing, Hydrographics, or HydroGraphics, is a method of applying printed designs to three-dimensional surfaces. The resulting combinations may be considered decorative art or applied art.

5. Direct-to-film printing - Wikipedia

   Direct-to-film printing. Direct-to-film printing (DTF) is a process of printing on textiles. The process involves the direct transfer of a design by first printing it on a special film and then using a heat press to transfer the design to a garment.

6. Prepress proofing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prepress_proofing

   Prepress proofing (also known as off-press proofing [4]) is a cost-effective way of providing a visual copy without the expense of creating a press proof. [5] If errors are found during the printing process on press, correcting them can prove very costly to one or both parties involved. Press time is the most expensive part of print media.

7. Thermal-transfer printing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal-transfer_printing

   Thermal-transfer printing is done by melting wax within the print heads of a specialized printer. The thermal-transfer print process utilises three main components: a non-movable print head, a carbon ribbon (the ink) and a substrate to be printed, which would typically be paper, synthetics, card or textile materials.
