tulosteella

Tulosteella is a Finnish term used in printing and documentation contexts to indicate information that appears on a printout rather than on a display. The word is formed from tuloste, meaning printout, with the locative suffix -ella, effectively translating to “on the printout.” In technical writing and quality assurance in Finnish-speaking environments, tulosteella specifies the medium where data or text can be observed.

Usage of the term occurs mainly in manuals, reports, and checklists to differentiate content visible on paper from that shown on a monitor. For example, a guideline might state that “the layout must be identical on tulosteella,” or “verify the data on tulosteella.” The term is more common in formal documentation and bilingual contexts than in casual speech, and it may appear alongside equivalent phrases in English or Swedish in Finnish technical publications.

Etymology and form: Tulosteella is built from tuloste (printout) and the locative suffix -ella, a standard Finnish construction for indicating location or medium. It functions as a noun in phrases describing printed outputs, diagrams, or records.

Note: Tulosteella is primarily a niche term used in Finnish technical writing. Its recognition outside Finnish-speaking contexts is limited, and it is not commonly found in everyday language.
