Abstract:
Provided is a printing method which enables formation of a high-definition printing pattern with high productivity. The printing method includes a treatment liquid application step of applying a treatment liquid, in a treatment liquid set pattern, to a pattern formation region of a printing plate in the printing plate on which a pattern has been formed; an ink application step of applying an ink, in an ink set pattern, to the pattern formation region of the printing plate to which the treatment liquid has been applied; and a transfer step of transferring the ink applied to the pattern formation region of the printing plate to a substrate. The treatment liquid is used for increasing a second diameter of the ink after application of the treatment liquid compared to a first diameter of the ink landed on the pattern formation region without application of the treatment liquid.

Claim (Index 4):
A printing method comprising:\n an ink application step of applying an ink, in an ink set pattern, to a pattern formation region of a printing plate in the printing plate on which a pattern has been formed; a treatment liquid application step of applying a treatment liquid, in a treatment liquid set pattern, to the pattern formation region of the printing plate to which the ink has been applied; and a transfer step of transferring the ink applied to the pattern formation region of the printing plate to a substrate, wherein the treatment liquid is used for increasing a second diameter of the ink after application of the treatment liquid compared to a first diameter of the ink landed on the pattern formation region without application of the treatment liquid.
