Druckt

Druckt is a German term primarily known as the third-person singular present indicative form of the verb drucken, meaning to print or to press depending on context. In standard usage, er druckt means “he prints” (as in printing copies of a document) and sie druckt means “she prints.” The form is written in lowercase within normal prose, unless it appears at the beginning of a sentence or as part of a title or proper noun.

The term sits within a broader semantic field that includes Druck (pressure or printing), Druckerei (printing house), and Drucker (printer; device or operator).
