Ross

I believe the answer is:

sprint

'dash it' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'prints inaccurately' is the wordplay.
'inaccurately' indicates an anagram.
'prints' with letters rearranged gives 'SPRINT'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sprint that I've seen before include "quick run" , "Short fast race" , "To make fast progress" , "Quick dash" , "Short race at full speed" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
