Erhöhung der Druckgeschwindigkeit


Explanation:
"bursting", in German, may have two meanings, a positive ands a negative:

1. "Output bursting"= "Erhöhung des Blattausstosses" = (idiomatic German) "Erhöhung der Druckgeschwindigkeit". This I would use when it refers to an explanation on how to speed up the printing process.

2. "output bursting" = "termination of the printing process" (due to technical or whatever reasons)= "Druckunterbrechung" or "Druckerstörung". This I would use when it refers to an explanation on how to fix printing problems or to detect errors.

What I wonder about is what sense is in putting this with no further contextat all.

neutral  Klaus Herrmann: Seitenumbruch could be mistaken as a page layout term, but Seitenabriß might fit. General enough, and the reader should get the idea...

  -> Agree with your comment, thank you.

agree  Chris Rowson (X): Yes, this refers to the archaic habit of using continuous paper which then has to be separated, or "burst" before mailing out or suchlike. I am almost ashamed to admit that I know this, but this is how meiaeval computer printers used to be used.
