Integers n such that if you insert between each of their digits either "*" (times), "^" (exponentiation), or "nothing" (so that two or more digits are merged to form an integer), then you can recover n in a nontrivial way (however, two "^" mustn't be adjacent - you must avoid decompositions containing a^b^c).

COMMENTS
The number of terms in the sequence is infinite, because there are numbers like 34425 = 3^4*425, 344250 = 3^4*4250, 3442500 = 3^4*42500, etc.

------------------------------
3^5 * 1482 * 9760 = 3514829760
is the only pandigital with this property. - Jean-Marc Falcoz, Mar 19 2009
-----------------------------
17 * 577 * 7 * 2^8 = 17577728
1297 * 7^3 * 31 * 941 = 12977331941
are the only composite integers up to 10^11 that are printer's errors with decomposition in prime factors. - Jean-Marc Falcoz, Sep 09 2018
CROSSREFS
Two other versions of the "printer's errors" sequence are A096298 and A116890.
This one is harder to compute because it's more general; you can have decompositions like ab*c*def^g*h*ij.
