Abstract
A method for printing on a curved surface includes determining if a surface of a workpiece is curved, cutting an image to be printed into at least two printing areas if the surface is curved, and printing the printing area of the image on each surface of the workpiece. If the surfaces of the workpiece are not curved, the printing system directly prints the image on the workpiece. The printing system includes a rotating mechanism and a printer including an inkjet head having a plurality of nozzles. The workpiece is positioned on the rotating mechanism. The rotating mechanism rotates each surface of the workpiece to face the inkjet head and the inkjet head prints each printing area on it.
