È un problema molto noto quando non si usano screensaver. Per me "impressa" descrive benissimo e senza ambiguità il fenomeno. Ciao

"bruciata"


Explanation:
"Utilizzando un'immagine stazionaria per un prolungato periodo di tempo senza aver abilitato la modalità di risparmio energetico per lo schermo, alcuni screensaver potrebbero fare bruciare un'immagine all'interno dello schermo CRT (Cathode Ray Tube). Un CRT e' un particolare tubo catodico sottovuoto in cui le immagini vengono prodotte quando un fascio di elettroni colpisce una superficie fosforescente."
