1.The Brother inkjet print head has four nozzle
groups servicing four color inks. This print head consists of a nozzle plate, metal
plates which are equipped with channels and manifolds, a piezoelectric ceramic actuator
and filters.
2. Ink is sprayed through microscopic nozzles
in the print head onto the paper using piezoelectric inkjet technology. A controlled
electric charge to the piezoelectric ceramic produces a pumping action, forming
and ejecting ink-droplets.
3. The print head assembly on the carriage,
with connecting ink cartridges, moves back and forth across the paper to produce
the desired image.
4. A stepper motor drives gears and rollers
designed to advance the paper with precision each time the print head assembly is
ready for another pass across the paper. The paper is then ejected once the printed
image is complete.
