Abstract: A method includes deriving from print data a first intended position of a first dot to be printed, determining a first printing element from a plurality of printing elements suitable for printing the first dot at the first intended position, printing the first dot with the first printing element at a first location on the substrate, deriving from the print data a second intended position of a second dot to be printed, retrieving a tolerated deviation of a distance between the first intended position and the second intended position, determining a second printing element from the plurality of printing elements suitable for printing the second dot based on the tolerated deviation, and printing the second dot with the second printing element at a second location on the substrate.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing electrical and/or optical components, wherein a hot melt composition including an alkane based wax and an amorphous material as a masking material is used. The hot melt composition has a melting point of between 40° C. and 85° C. and a viscosity of between 5 and 20 mPa·s at not less than one temperature within the range of between 50° C. and 140° C. A hot melt composition includes between 40 weight % and 89.9 weight % of an alkane based wax; between 10 weight % and 50 weight % of an amorphous material; and between 0.1 weight % and 10 weight % of a phosphonium based ionic liquid. A system and a method for manufacturing electronic and/or optical components is provided, wherein after the etch processes and/or plating processes, the hot melt composition is removed from the substrate with the aid of hot water.
