Abstract
A printer according to the present invention includes a transfer roll and a plurality of the printing rolls. At least one printing roll of the plurality of the printing rolls transfers ink containing a conductive material to the transfer roll. Preferably, the at least one printing roll includes a printing roll configured to transfer ink containing a conductive material to the transfer roll and a printing roll configured to transfer ink containing a conductive material to the transfer roll.
Claims12
A printer, comprising:
- a transfer roll;
- a first printing roll arranged on the periphery of the transfer roll and having a groove in a first wiring pattern configured to transfer the first wiring pattern of a first ink containing a first conductive material in the groove to the transfer roll, the first wiring pattern including a linear part;
- and
- a second printing roll arranged on the periphery of the transfer roll and having a groove in a second wiring pattern configured to transfer the second wiring pattern of a second ink containing a second conductive material in the groove to the transfer roll, the second wiring pattern including a linear part,
- wherein the first wiring pattern of the first printing roll and the second wiring pattern of the second printing roll are formed such that the linear part of the second ink entirely covers the linear part of the first ink on the transfer roll such that the first and second wiring patterns are printed on a to-be-printed object by the transfer roll at the same time.

A printing method, comprising:
- transferring, by a first printing roll with a groove in a first wiring pattern, the first wiring pattern of a first ink containing a first conductive material in the groove of the first printing roll to a transfer roll, the first wiring pattern including a linear part;
- transferring, by a second printing roll with a groove in a second wiring pattern, the second wiring pattern of a second ink containing a second conductive material in the groove of the second printing roll to the transfer roll, the second wiring pattern including a linear part, wherein the transferring of the second wiring pattern of the second ink to the transfer roll by the second printing roll includes transferring the second ink to the transfer roll by the second printing roll so that the linear part of the second ink entirely covers the linear part of the first ink;
- and
- printing the first ink transferred from the first printing roll and the second ink transferred from the second printing roll on a to-be-printed object by the transfer roll at the same time,
- wherein the transferring the second wiring pattern of a second ink to the transfer roll by a second printing roll includes transferring the second ink to the transfer roll by the second printing roll so that the linear part of the second ink entirely covers the linear part of the first ink.
