摘要

The method for producing a printed surface with metallic effect, comprises providing a planar carrier having area wise light-reflecting property on the surface, and digital printing the surface by means of UV-curing ink in the ink-jet printing process under utilization of LED-pinning in such an extent that the surface produced by the printing appears as macroscopically closed manner. The carrier has macroscopic openings and/or passageways to the surface of the carrier through which the light is arrived and is reflected on the surface of the carrier. The method for producing a printed surface with metallic effect, comprises providing a planar carrier having area wise light-reflecting property on the surface, and digital printing the surface by means of UV-curing ink in the ink-jet printing process under utilization of LED-pinning in such an extent that the surface produced by the printing appears as macroscopically closed manner. The carrier has macroscopic openings and/or passageways to the surface of the carrier through which the light is arrived and is reflected on the surface of the carrier so that the spectral region of the over all reflected light arises through spectral association of the reflected light from the surface of the carrier and from the surface of the cured ink. The ink-print and/or drop-good is printed in the form of microdroplet in screen lying between openings in terms of an open porosity. The thickness of the screen and/or size of the openings and/or over all spectral composition is susceptible and/or adjustable by the surface of the reflected light. The carrier is constructed such that light is reflected on a plane or on different planes of the carrier. A glass plate, polished metal plate, a metal foil, paper or carton is used as the carrier. The paper or the carton is used with grey or silver surface. The carrier is used with a metallized surface or with metallic-components/deposits/inclusions on the surface. The carrier has a mat-silver appearing surface. The surface of the carrier is totally or partially implemented as mat. The surface of the carrier is typographically produced through digital printing under utilization of LED-pinning. An independent claim is included for a printed surface having a metallic effect.
