The document discusses different types of textile printing methods. It distinguishes between dyeing and printing, noting that dyeing results in uniform coloration while printing applies color locally in designs. Printing uses an aqueous medium of high viscosity to prevent color from spreading. Common printing methods described include block, stencil, roller, screen, and digital printing. Resist and discharge styles of printing are also outlined.

2. INTRODUCTION DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DYEING AND PRINTING DYEING UNIFORM COLOURATION ALONG LENGTH AND WIDTH OF FABRIC USUALLY SINGLE COLOUR IS POSSIBLE. NO DIFFERENCE IN COLOUR BETWEEN FRONT AND BACK SIDE OF FABRIC AQUEOUS DYEING MEDIUM OF LOW VISCOSITY DYEING IN BATCHWISE, CONTINUOUS OR SEMI-CONTINUOUS METHOD. FABRIC DYEING IN OPEN WIDTH OR ROPE FORM. DYEING IN FIBRE, YARN, FABRIC, GARMENT FORM

3. PRINTING LOCALLIZED DYEING COLOUR IS APPLIED LOCALLY IN THE FORM OF DESIGN/PATTERN LOW VISCOSITY MEDIUM WOULD SPREAD THE COLOUR BY CAPILLARY ACTION, DOES NOT MAINTAIN THE SHARPNESS OF THE DESIGN. AQUEOUS MEDIUM OF HIGH VISCOSITY, PREVENT THE COLOUR SPREADING. FABRIC PRINTING IN OPEN WIDTH FORM ONLY FABRIC PRINTING IS MOST COMMON COMPARED TO YARN AND GARMENT PRINTING, EXCEPTION T-SHIRT PRINTING
