The document describes different printing methods including hand printing, block printing, and photocopying. Block printing involves cutting shapes into blocks that are then inked and pressed onto paper. Photocopying can enlarge or reduce images and copy materials like paper, card, and acetate sheets. It allows artists to arrange multiple drawings on a page, make patterns from a single drawing, and copy reference materials while maintaining a consistent style.
