Described are techniques for ferrofluidic printing. The techniques including a method comprising receiving an electronic document at a ferrofluidic printer from a user device via a short-range network. The method further comprises applying a magnetic field to a ferrofluid to form a ferrofluidic template approximating a portion of the electronic document. The method further comprises projecting ink through the ferrofluidic template and onto a page using a blower.

The present invention relates to a curved surface screen printing apparatus performing printing on a surface to be printed of a base material having a curved surface, including: a screen plate formed with a pattern and arranged above the base material; a squeegee which is disposed above the screen plate and applies an ink to the surface to be printed of the base material through the screen plate; and a base material moving mechanism which moves the base material along a vertical plane and is capable of swinging the base material with respect to an axis orthogonal to the vertical plane.

A screen printing apparatus comprises print executing parts 20A, 20B, first and second substrate loading parts En1, En2 and a substrate unloading part Ex, and first and second substrate support tables 10A, 10B for supporting a substrate W to enable printing thereon by the print executing parts 20A, 20B. The first substrate support table 10A moves between a first receiving position where the substrate W loaded from the first substrate loading part En1 is received, and a sending position where the substrate W is unloaded from the substrate unloading part Ex. The second substrate support table 10B moves between a second receiving position where the substrate W loaded from the second substrate loading part En2 is received, and the sending position. The print executing parts 20A, 20B are respectively placed at positions on the substrate support tables 10A, 10B where printing on the substrate W is enabled.
