Plasma Workspaces (KDE's desktop environment.) offers you the ability to have different wallpapers per workspace and desktop widgets. On top of this Plasma Workspaces offers another feature called "activities" which is similar to workspaces.
In most Linux desktops, you get a number of workspaces to work with (the default number varies by distro and DE). These function similar to plugging in an external monitor and using that to extend your screenspace. With workspaces, this works by pressing a key combination, or tapping a taskbar icon, to let you view the other workspaces.

Adobe Illustrator offers several preset workspaces tailored to different tasks, such as "Essentials," "Typography," "Web," and "Painting." These workspaces are designed to provide a streamlined interface with relevant tools and panels for specific projects, enhancing user efficiency. Users can also customize their own workspaces by rearranging panels and saving their configurations for future use. This flexibility allows designers to optimize their workflow according to their preferences and project needs.

In the default installation of AutoCAD, there are typically three workspaces provided: Drafting & Annotation, 3D Modeling, and AutoCAD Classic. These workspaces cater to different user needs, allowing for customized layouts and toolsets based on specific tasks. Users can switch between these workspaces or create their own as needed.
Workspaces sell office furniture and equipment for both the home and office. These include desks, cabinets, filing cabinets, office chairs and workstations.

In Linux, the lp command is commonly used to print a file. For example, you can use lp filename.txt to send the file filename.txt to the default printer.
