Voyager actors used a 'cheat' to remember lines.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Star Trek: Voyager actors used a trick to remember their lines, according to Ensign Harry Kim actor Garrett Wang. Being on a Star Trek show poses a unique challenge to even the most seasoned of actors, thanks to the convoluted technical jargon often used to describe the sci-fi problems beleaguering the crews of starships and space stations alike.
Star Trek: Voyager was perhaps the most technobabble-heavy of the 90s cadre of Star Trek shows, and least likely to offer analogies explaining exactly what the arcane phrases actually meant. To that end, the cast of Star Trek: Voyager had a tougher time than most when it came to remembering the exact wording of Star Trek jargon, so it's not surprising that at least one Voyager cast member would come up with a trick to help them get it right.

Garrett Wang: "I got criticism from Tim Russ when he saw what I did, and then two weeks later, he did the exact same thing I did. I took black electrician's tape, pasted it on my console, and silver Sharpied my lines on the black tape. When I came in two weeks later, Tim Russ had typed up at home, and brought the little cut-up papers to put on different spots on his console, because he stole it from me.
Robert Duncan McNeill: "And then Robert Beltran stole it from all of you, because he would take his , and rip just his lines, and tape them onto the center console. We were such cheats."
