Across
- 3. A process in which a power source feeds electrical charges between the impression roller and the printing cylinder, creating a force that helps release ink from the etched cells.
- 6. A press system that removes the printed substrate from the printing system and prepares it for finishing operations.
- 7. Definition (2 of 49)A printing system component that holds the image-receptive blanket on the press and receives the image from the plate cylinder.
- 8. The result of tensioning fabric in one direction without stretching it equally in the other direction.
- 10. A control device that prevents more than one sheet of paper from entering the press.
- 12. A group of rollers designed to apply moisture to the nonimage area of the printing plate.
- 14. A relief printing process that uses flexible printing plates for printing long run jobs.
- 15. The distance across individual open areas between adjacent threads
- 16. Adjusting images to optimize values for highlight and shadow, neutral tones, skin tones, and sharpness, to compensate for impurities in the printing ink and color separation.
- 17. a continuous dampening system that uses a brush roller to transfer fountain solution from the fountain roller to the rest of the system.
Down
- 1. A duplicate relief plate that is produced from a mold through an electrochemical process.
- 2. A method of printing from cells or depressions that are engraved below the nonimage area of the printing cylinder.
- 4. Imaging systems that expose fully-paginated digital materials to plates in platesetters or imagesetters without creating film intermediates.
- 5. A single thread.
- 7. A resilient material that is attached to a cylinder and used as an image transfer material from the plate cylinder to the substrate.
- 9. A curved or triangular plane that serves as the folding surface on a web-fed press.
- 11. A tension control device designed to produce a slight amount of drag on the web as it travels through a web-fed press.
- 13. A splicer unit that bonds a new web to the existing web without stopping any operations on a web-fed press.
