Printing sheet and mold sheet for forming printing surface on the printing sheet

Abstract

A printing sheet 1 comprising a base sheet 5 and an inorganic solidified matter layer 3 laminated on the surface of the base sheet 1, the surface 3a of the inorganic solidified matter layer 3 serving as the printing surface, wherein, in an electron microphotograph magnified by 100 times, the printing surface is a surface on where continuous flat surfaces and indefinite protuberances surrounded by said flat surfaces are present being mixed together, the protuberances being present at a ratio of 10 to 30% per a unit area and being observed having sizes or long diameters of 10 to 300 μm and in a number of 50 to 300 per 1 mm2. With this printing sheet, the fiber is effectively prevented from adhering on the surface of the inorganic solidified matter layer on which the printing is to be executed, and images can be finely printed maintaining in good quality without being blurred.
