This invention relates to a printed textile substrate, such as a floorcovering article, and a process for making a printed textile substrate. The printed textile substrate contains areas of low viscosity printing ink and high viscosity printing ink. The process for making the textile substrate includes a one pass manufacturing step that results in a textile substrate having areas of low viscosity and high viscosity printing inks. L'invention concerne un substrat textile imprimé, tel qu'un article de revêtement de sol, et un procédé de fabrication d'un substrat textile imprimé. Le substrat textile imprimé contient des zones d'encre d'impression à faible viscosité et d'encre d'impression à haute viscosité. Le procédé de fabrication du substrat textile comprend une étape de fabrication à une seule passe qui permet d'obtenir un substrat textile présentant des zones d'encres d'impression à faible viscosité et à haute viscosité.
