Abstract

A side surface of a cover glass of an electronic device may be coated with a curable ink to reduce leakage of light from the side surface. The ink may be deposited on the side surface via a pen comprising a reservoir, a valve, and a nib. The nib may comprise a fiber bundle through which pigment particles may pass. The ink may be precisely deposited via the nib on the side surface without visible ink overflowing to a front surface or a back surface of the cover glass.
