I'm the type to make an impression (7)
I believe the answer is:
imprint
'make an impression' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'i'm the type' is the wordplay.
'the type' becomes 'print' (both can mean printed text).
'im'+'print'='IMPRINT'
'to' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for imprint that I've seen before include "make an impact" , "Stamp; brand" , "Publisher's name; stamp" , "Stamp; impression" , "Impress, stamp" .)
