Make impression with new tech (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

etch

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'make impression' is the definition.
'etch' can be an answer for 'impression' (I've seen this before). I am unsure of the 'make' bit.

'new tech' is the wordplay.
'new' indicates an anagram.
'tech' anagrammed gives 'ETCH'.

'with' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for etch that I've seen before include "Incribe" , "Cut lines with acid" , "Cut into a block used for printing" , "Corrode" , "Mark" .)
