Production
The prints were made on a computer printer manufactured by Rank Xerox (model Xerox 4020). The process is known as ink jet: the three primaries and black are held in a carriage which moves back and forth across the paper as printing is in progress; the ink is released or withheld by electronic impulse and deposited through nozzles, in dots, row by row. Resolution is measured in d.p.i. or dots per inch, and this can be adjusted, within limits, within one machine.
