A coating device and method for coating a fiber web for applying coating color onto a fiber web has a nozzle unit with at least one nozzle part (10), a feeding chamber (11) and at least one equalizing chamber (13; 13), a feed hole (12) between the feeding chamber (11) and the first equalizing chamber (13), and a nozzle slot (14) from which the coating color is discharged through the nozzle slot (14) outlet opening (15). A mixing chamber (20) between the outlet area of the feed hole (12) and the equalizing chamber (13) functions as a means for distributing uniformly the inhomogeneous coating color flow entering the equalizing chamber (13) from the feed hole (12). The coating from the feed hole is directed to a wall (22) of mixing chambers (20) which distribute uniformly the coating entering the equalizing chamber (13).

The invention relates to a method of producing decorative paper which is coated with at least one ink-fixing layer, which is printable and which can be impregnated with a thermosetting resin, in order to produce a high- or low-pressure decorative laminate. The inventive method comprises the following steps consisting in: (a) producing a base sheet of decorative paper using paper-making means; and (b) coating at least one of the faces of the base paper sheet with said at least one ink-fixing layer, by means of curtain coating. The invention also relates to high- or low-pressure decorative laminates comprising such decorative paper.
