1. A process for producing a reflector, comprising:
- forming an insulating member from a first synthetic resin;
printing a conductive filler on a surface of said insulating member;
solidifying said conductive filler on said surface for producing a conductive pattern; and
forming a groove in said insulating member,wherein said conductive pattern is formed in said groove, andwherein said first synthetic resin comprises a thermoplastic resin, and said conductive pattern comprises a second synthetic resin comprising a thermosetting resin containing a conductive material.

Abstract
A reflector is incorporated in a liquid crystal display panel for directing light to an optical path from a lamp to a liquid crystal panel, and a high voltage line is directly connected to an electrode of the lamp, but a low voltage line is connected through a conductive pattern formed on the reflector to the other electrode of the lamp, wherein the conductive pattern is formed from a layer of conductive filler printed on the reflector through thermosetting so that the conductive pattern is thick enough to withstand thermal stress without enlargement of the liquid crystal display unit.
