Abstract

L'invention porte sur un procédé de coloration de fil électrique qui peut réduire l'utilisation d'encre en empêchant un dessèchement de l'encre. Un appareil de coloration (1) comprend des éléments d'impression d'encre (20a, 20b). Les éléments d'impression d'encre (20a, 20b) épongent de l'encre dans ceux-ci afin de stocker l'encre, et se déforme élastiquement en contactant un objet. Les éléments d'impression d'encre (20a, 20b) impriment l'encre sur l'objet par la déformation élastique. Les éléments d'impression d'encre (20a, 20b) sont en contact l'un avec l'autre pendant une période autre que le temps de coloration du fil électrique.
