Textile printing is used to signify the production, by various means of colored patterns on designs upon all sorts of textile fiber.
Textile printing is the most important and versatile of the techniques used to add design, color, and specialty to textile fabrics. In other words, dyes and pigments are applied locally or discontinuously to produce the various designs. In fact, printing is described as ‘localized dyeing.’ The forces which operate between the dye and the fiber (on mechanical retention, hydrogen bonding, chemical reaction, electrostatic attraction etc.) are the same in dyeing and printing.
The term 'colorant' is used here because it covers both dyes and Pigments.
