Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1108558A2] A method of forming image-bearing panel members comprises providing a plurality of sheets 16 of metal coated on one side thereof with a layer of plastics material. The sheets 16 are then printed in a piece-wise manner, by at least partially covering the plastics coating of the sheet 16 to be printed with a transfer on which a reverse of the image is printed with a sublimation inks, and subjecting the transfer to conditions which cause the sublimation inks to migrate from the transfer to the plastics coating whilst the sheet remains stationary. <IMAGE>
