PURPOSE:To stably and simply print in large quantity by a recording peripheral device to be applied to a computer, etc., by utilizing change in adhesive properties of ink in response to polarity of an applied voltage. CONSTITUTION:Ink 2 of recording material is formed in a uniform thickness on an ink carrying roll 1 by a coating roll 9, ink 11 kneaded by kneading means 20 is supplied to the roll 9, and guided to an ink reservoir 10 upon rotation in a direction of an arrow E. A plate 4 wound on a plate roll 3 is brought into contact with the ink 2 on the roll 1, and the roll 3 is rotated reversely to the roll 1. A desired pattern 4b made of an insulating material is provided on a base material 4a made of a conductive material on the plate 4. A voltage is applied from a power source 103 between the plate 4 and the roll 1 to change the adhesive properties of the ink 2 in contact with the conductive part of the plate 4 to adhere the ink 2 on the pattern due to the difference of the adhesive properties, thereby forming an ink image. Thus, a large quantity printing can be stably performed for a long period. |
