摘要： A printhead uses large and small drop ejectors to achieve efficient gray scale printing. The printhead is arranged with a close packed configuration of alternating large and small nozzles positioned to maximize coverage while minimizing the volume of ejected ink. The printhead may be operated in a single pass mode or dual pass mode. In the single pass mode, complete coverage is effected by rippling through the odd numbered jets first and then rippling through the even numbered jets. The position of the small spots from the even numbered jets can be adjusted to maximize coverage and counteract offset between nozzle centers. Printheads with different size nozzles can also be operated by a staggered firing method using dual passes to offset spots in the scan direction by shifting the printhead between passes or alternating between groups of large and small nozzles. Further improvements to image quality can be realized by shifting the spots in the direction perpendicular to the scanning direction by tilting the printhead or offsetting the nozzles with respect to the ink channels on the printhead.

摘要： A system controls an ink jet printing apparatus for propelling ink jet droplets on demand from a printhead having a plurality of drop ejectors. In the printhead, each ejector includes a heating element actuable in response to electrical input signals, each input signal having an amplitude and a time duration, selectably applied to the heating element to produce a temporary vapor bubble and cause a quantity of ink to be emitted for the creation of a mark on a copy sheet. The temperature of ink in the printhead is sensed, and a combination of power level and time duration of the electrical input signal for the heating element to result in a desired size of the mark of the copy sheet is selected, by entering the sensed temperature of the ink into a predetermined function relating the energy of the electrical input signal to the corresponding resulting size of the mark on the copy sheet.

摘要： A thermal ink jet printer is disclosed which has a printhead that is maintained at a substantially constant operating temperature during printing. Printing on demand is accomplished by the ejection of ink droplets from the printhead nozzles in response to energy pulses selectively applied to heating elements located in ink channels upstream from the nozzles which pulses vaporize the ink to form temporary bubbles. To prevent printhead temperature fluctuations during printing, especially in translatable carriage printers, the heating elements not being used to eject droplets are selectively energized with energy pulses having insufficient magnitude to vaporize the ink.

摘要： The new heater element design has a pit layer which protects the overglaze passivation layer, PSG step region, portions of the Ta layer and dielectric isolation layer and junctions or regions susceptible to the cavitational pressures. Further, the inner walls of the pit layer define the effective heater area and the dopant lines define the actual heater area. In alternative embodiments, the dopant lines define the actual and effective heater areas, and an inner wall and a dopant line define the actual and effective heater areas. Further, when the new heater element designs are incorporated into printheads having full pit channel geometry and open pit channel geometry, the operating lifetime of the printhead is extended because the added protection of the pit layer prevents: 1) passivation damage and cavitational damages of the heater elements; and 2) degradation of heater robustness, hot spot formations and heater failures well into the 109 pulse range. The printhead incorporating the new heater element design can be incorporated into drop-on-demand printing systems of a carriage type or a full width type.

摘要： Data relating to the performance of an individual ink-jet printhead is stored in an electrically-readable form on a silicon substrate forming an essential part of the printhead. A template of electrically-detectable structure is created on the substrate at manufacture, and then portions of the structure are removed in accordance with the data desired to be stored. In one embodiment, the digital performance data may be encoded and also read out in serial form using a shift register on the chip.

摘要： Operating an ultrasonic transmitter and receiver includes providing a MEMS composite transducer. The MEMS composite transducer includes a substrate. Portions of the substrate define an outer boundary of a cavity. A first MEMS transducing member includes a first size. A first portion of the first MEMS transducing member is anchored to the substrate. A second portion of the first MEMS transducing member extends over at least a portion of the cavity and is free to move relative to the cavity. A second MEMS transducing member includes a second size smaller than the first size of the first MEMS transducing member. A first portion of the second MEMS transducing member is anchored to the substrate. A second portion of the second MEMS transducing member extends over at least a portion of the cavity and is free to move relative to the cavity. A compliant membrane is positioned in contact with the first and second MEMS transducing members. A first portion of the compliant membrane covers the first and second MEMS transducing members. A second portion of the compliant membrane is anchored to the substrate. Electrical pulses are sent to the first MEMS transducing member which causes the first MEMS transducing member and the compliant membrane to vibrate. The vibrations of the first MEMS transducing member and the compliant membrane are transmitted to an object. Echo signals are received from the object. The received echo signals are converted into electrical signals by the second MEMS transducing member.
