    Abstract: A writing method for E-paper includes the following steps. A writing device for E-paper is provided, which includes a first writing electrode and a second writing electrode facing to the first writing electrode. A writing space is defined between the first writing electrode and the second writing electrode. Next, an E-paper is disposed into the writing space. Next, a voltage is applied on the first writing electrode and/or the second writing electrode to generate an electric field in the writing space. Next, the first writing electrode and the second writing electrode are driven to move with respective to the E-paper so that the E-paper is written by the electric field in the writing space. The E-paper can be written without a writing circuit configured therein by the writing method, thereby the production cost of the E-paper can be reduced and the E-paper is facilitated to carry.
