Abstract
A printing stencil () for forming conductor tracks on a substrate. The printing stencil () has a plurality of cutouts in the form of printing gaps () for forming the conductor tracks. Each printing gap () of the plurality of printing gaps () has at least one print definition region () adjacent to the printing side and at least one printing medium supply region () adjacent to the squeegee side, the volume of the print definition region () being smaller than the volume of the printing medium supply region. Moreover, a printing device for forming conductor tracks on a substrate and a method for producing a metallic contact structure of a photovoltaic solar cell are also provided.
