Abstract
A method of manufacturing a glass assembly to have an opaque boundary feature includes a step of forming a first glass substrate that is curved, with the first glass substrate having an outer surface (P1) and an opposing inner surface (P2), and a second glass substrate that is curved, with the second glass substrate having an inner surface (P3) and an opposing outer surface (P4). The method also includes a step of digitally-applying an organic ink without a mask on at least one of the P2 surface and the P3 surface. The method further includes curing the organic ink to form the opaque boundary feature on at least one of the P2 surface and the P3 surface. The method also further includes disposing a polymeric interlayer between the P2 surface and the P3 surface.
