`The difference of the inventions according to the independent claims l and i2 is in that the

`comprises (meth)acrylate or (meth)aerylamide polymer or copolymer and the coating composition

`(column 5, lines 4548),, and a pretreatment vehicle containing water and 5-30 wed/a of the total
`weight of the co»solvent pretreatment tluid (column 9, lines 947).
`From Die the features of the dependent claim 8 are known -- the inlt vehicle contains water
`and 5230 wt~% ot‘co—solvent ofthe total weight of the composition (c lumn 9, lines 9—47).
`Front Bl
`the features of the dependent claims l4 and £5 are known --
`the aqueous
`pretreatment fluid is printed on a print substrate to form a pretreatment layer disposed on the
`substrate;
`the aqueous inlt composition is inkjet printed on the substrate to form the ink layer;
`disposed on the pretreatment layer; and the aqueous coating composition is inkjet printed on the
`substrate to form the coating layer located on the ink layer (column 4, lines 47-60).
`the coating
`From D2,
`the features of the dependent claims 4—5, 9—ll
`are known —
`composition comprises (ll—25 Wt% ol’ the latex polymer comprising alkyllnieth)acrylatc monomers;
`0.an well/is wax and the coating vehicle ([004ol-[0047l3 lUOégl—EDWO}, [0972]).
`From D2 the features of the dependent claim 13 are known ~ the method comprises the
`heating of the pretreatment layer, the ink layer and the coating layer located on the substrate to cure l
`the latex polymer to form a film of latex polymer located on the substrate ([Gldll).
`the aqueous
`From D3 the features of the dependent claims 3, 5, 74;, ll are known u
`composition of the ink comprises 2~30 wt~% of the latex polymer comprising monomers of
`(meth)acrylate (egg, cycloaliphalic~cyclohexyl (methlacrylate ( {60411)}, 5-430 wt~% of the pigment
`oi” the total weight of the composition; and an inlt vehicle (abstract).
`Regarding the dependent claim 2, it is obvious to a person skilled in the art that it is possible
`to use a latex polymer of an ink composition that is different from the latex polymer of the coating
`composition.
`Therefore the inventions according to the dependent claims 2ul l and l3ul5 do not meet the
`criterion ofinventive step.
`The inventions according to the claims l~l 5 meet the criterion of industrial applicability.
