Abstract
An ink metering member (10') to form a thin film (130) of ink on a resilient roller surface (45) wherein the metering member comprises a hard, elongated strip having a first polished leading edge (25) and a second polished trailing edge (28b) formed on each side of a polished support surface (26) urged into pressure indented relationship with the resilient roller. The metering member further has a relieved area (27) formed in a lower surface (28) adjacent the lower trailing edge (28b) to prevent accumulation of ink which would be transferred to the roller surface downstream from the trailing edge. The trailing edge (28b) is sufficiently close to the leading edge (25) to assure simultaneous indentation into the resilient roller to prevent accumulation of ink on the polished support surface (26).
