Military Intelligence charge for this type of error (8)

I believe the answer is:

misprint

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

'this type of error' is the definition.

'military intelligence charge' is the wordplay.
'military intelligence' becomes 'MI' (as in MIn or MIt - British military intelligence).
'charge' becomes 'sprint' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'mi'+'sprint'='MISPRINT'

'for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for misprint that I've seen before include "Typo" , "Possibly the wrong character" , "Typing error" , "mistake" , "bad spell perhaps" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
