Abstract

A stencil printing apparatus allows printing on coated paper as in ordinary paper (uncoated paper), and can make a contribution to the diversification of printing needs. The stencil printing apparatus comprises a printing apparatus body comprising a printing drum having UV curable ink, and an UV irradiation device connected to a paper output unit of the printing apparatus body. When the paper type is recognized as coated paper on the basis of a signal from paper type input means or the like, control means controls a master-making energy supplied to a thermal head serving as master-making means, to be larger than a master-making energy supplied in the case of uncoated paper. The paper onto which an ink image corresponding to the characteristics of coated paper has been transferred is then fed into the UV irradiation device, where the ink is dried and cured.
