Abstract

This invention relates to an anilox printing apparatus (20) for depositing ink onto a substrate (23) in a predetermined pat-tern. The apparatus (20) has a reservoir (22) provided with a weir (30) so that ink (24) may continuously overflow the top or end of the weir (30) and be removed from the reservoir (22) in a controlled fashion while maintaining a constant backpressure of ink (24) in the reservoir (22). This arragement provides the advantage that ink leakage and splashing caused by debris entering the nip associated with a doctor blade (26) held against the anilox roll (25) or by surface imperfections interfering with the seal formed by such a doctor blade (26) are eliminated. This also provides a printing apparatus (20) for complete coating of the peri-phery of the anilox roll (25) with ink (24) without a high pressure system.
