How to make kitchen glass background

[MonsterBabyBLN]

Dear community.. hoping for some input here.
I have seen a few kitchens lately that don't have wood decor or stone as a background at the wall but glass.
I have some latex printers. Is there a way of using those to print maybe behind the glass?
How does it work? You would have to glue the printed side to the glass I suppose or do they have special material?
Or do you have to print direct on the glass..
Thnx for some ideas

I believe there are printers that can print directly to glass.
With our Latex HP's we'll print a reverse to clear then laminate it with white.
Wet apply to glass.

Interesting. So you need a clear material. Hmm I can't print white..
Was looking for an idea to use the one I have..

If you can't print white, back it with white vinyl (with a clear adhesive) as suggested.

This would mean I have to 'glue' two layers? First the clear printed vinyl then the white backing?
Could also print on white vinyl than and glue the printed side?

You want to work within your capabilities, and if you can't print white, then you need to use a white backer.
Reverse print on a clear adhesive vinyl. Laminate it with a white vinyl with clear adhesive then mount that to the glass 2nd surface.
I don't know what your wheelhouse is, but this is starting to seem like it's outside of it.

The clear vinyl has adhesive so you just print your graphic reversed/mirrored and laminate as usual using a white laminate , you do laminate your prints, right? Exactly like making any other decal just laminated with white instead of clear.
