PURPOSE: To reduce the number of interposing rolls and simplify a structure, realize the simple structure of a doctor and eliminate the necessity of high accuracy and also eliminate the necessity of high level adjustment by transferring ink from a first roll directly to a second roll and making ink adhere to a block.

CONSTITUTION: When a first roll 2 is rotated, ink A in an ink pan 1 is pumped up by micropores or micro-channels (x) on the first roll 2 and stored in the micropores or micro-channels (x), and left just as they are along the peripheral face. A second roll 3 as a printing cylinder is brought into contact with the first roll 2, while a block 4 is disposed in tension on the peripheral face of the second roll 3, and the peripheral face of the first roll 2 and the block 4 are in the state of being brought into contact together. The block 4 is a slightly flexible synthetic resin plate on which printing patterns and the like are formed in the projected state, and ink A stored on the peripheral face of the first roll 2 is transferred to the block 4 as it is.
