The printing process according to the invention consists in: inputting into a computer the data, in digital form, relating to the surface of a three-dimensional object; inputting into said computer the data, in digital form, relating to a graphic representation; carrying out on said computer the virtual overlaying of said digital graphic representation on the digital reproduction of the solid surface of the three-dimensional object; checking by means of said computer the operational sequence of a production machine and of a printing device in order to reproduce by printing on the solid surface of said three-dimensional object said graphic representation. The device for carrying out the process comprises a computer (12) suitably programmed for: (a) inputting the data, in digital form, relating to the solid surface of a three-dimensional object on which to print; (b) inputting the data, in digital form, relating to a graphic representation; (c) carrying out the virtual overlaying of said digital graphic representation on the digital reproduction of the solid surface of the three-dimensional object, and (d) checking the operational and functional sequence of a production machine (11) and of a printing device (13), in order to reproduce by printing on the solid surface of said three-dimensional object said graphic representation. <IMAGE> |
