  • the ink repellent material should have hydrophilic properties or be water friendly.
  • color-friendly or hydrophobic material is a ceramic, copper, Polyamide or Rilsan (R) used.
  • a roll according to the invention in the axial direction one behind the other arranged several areas or circumferential surfaces of color-friendly material, between which in each case at least one region or a circumferential surface of a color-repellent or water-friendly material is arranged. So can at a roller according to an embodiment, for example, four color-friendly sections be provided in succession in the axial direction, which by three sections separated from water-friendly or color-repellent material are.
  • the thickness of the color-friendly material is preferably in the range of 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm, and is more preferably 0.3 mm.
  • the thickness of the ink-repellent or water-friendly material in the range of 0.01 mm to 0.10 mm, more preferably in the range of 0.02 mm to 0.05 mm and is advantageously 0.035 mm.
