A paste printer allows an electrically-conductive pad formed on a board to be exposed in an opening of a masking member. A removal mechanism is allowed to act on the surface of the electrically-conductive pad within the opening. A rust film is removed from the surface of the electrically-conductive pad. The surface of the electrically-conductive pad gets cleaned. Since the electrically-conductive pad is exposed within the opening of the masking member, the removal mechanism is applied only to the electrically-conductive pad. This results in prevention of damages to the board over an area outside the electrically-conductive pad. In addition, the squeegee serves to supply the electrically-conductive paste to the surface of the electrically-conductive pad through the opening of the masking member. The electrically-conductive pad is covered with the electrically-conductive paste. This results in a reliable prevention of oxidation on the surface of the electrically-conductive pad.
