Abstract: A method for printing a metal paste includes the step of arranging, to locate a through hole of a metal mask having the through hole on an electrode, a metal mask on a substrate and forming a gap portion communicating with the through hole in an interface between the substrate and the metal mask. According to this method, in filling of a metal paste, a flux oozing on a surface of the metal paste can be moved to the gap portion. In other words, a deaeration path for residual air in the metal paste clogged by the flux can be secured by removing the flux. In this manner, in the through hole, the remaining air in the metal paste can be removed, and a filling rate of the metal paste can be increased.
