The earliest known form of printing applied to paper was woodblock printing, which appeared prior to 220 AD in China. Later developments in printing technology include the movable type invented by Bi Sheng around 1040 AD and the printing press invented by Johannes Gutenberg in the 15th century.
Each printing process is divided into steps that are pre-press, press, and post-press. Prepress operations include steps during which the idea of a printed image is converted into an image carrier, such as a plate, cylinder, or screen.
For printing photos and color documents, inkjet printers are better, and while there are color laser printers, they are more expensive. Laser printers don't use ink, unlike inkjet printers. The trade-off is that, in general, laser printers are more costly.
The HP Officejet Pro X Series can deliver high-quality professional documents at up to 70 pages per minute (ppm), making it the fastest desktop printer according to Guinness World Records, powered by HP PageWide Technology, the company's next generation inkjet platform.
Typically, color printing uses four-color inks: cyan , magenta , yellow, and black. The resulting "primary" mixtures are red, green , and blue when the CMY "secondary" is combined at full strength.
