printability

/pɹˌɪntəbˈɪlᵻɾi/ noun

The state or condition of being printable, or of being a suitable ink or paper for use in printing.

Word Origin Print comes from Latin 'premere' 'to press' via Old French 'preinte' 'impression'. So printing is literally 'pressing' ink onto paper. Printability is the quality of being printable. The root 'premere' gives us press, pressure, compress, express, impress, suppress — all about pressing. So printability is 'press-able-ness'.

noun The state or condition of being printable, or of being a suitable ink or paper for use in printing. countable
