A method of printing an automotive glazing component and an automotive glazing component are described. The method comprises the steps of: printing a first portion, having a width, of the glazing component using an ink spray to provide a first ink density, the ink density being constant across the width of the first portion; printing a second portion, also having a width, of the glazing component using an ink spray; and leaving a third portion, also having a width, of the glazing component, adjacent the second portion, unprinted, such that there is a zero ink density on the surface of the third portion of the glazing component. The step of printing the second portion comprises varying the output of the ink spray to produce a non-constant ink density on the surface of the second portion. By providing a non-constant ink-density on the surface of the glazing, it is possible to provide low-cost high-resolution non-constant optical and thermal transmission regions on automotive glazings. |
