The present disclosure provides an inkjet head device for inkjet printers, which includes a tubular base, a composite plate and an inkjet head assembly mounted on the composite plate; the composite plate includes a fiberglass plate and a plastic plate integrally connected to the fiberglass plate, the fiberglass plate is engaged with the open side of the base along an axial direction of the base, the plastic plate is located on a surface facing the base of the fiberglass plate. According to the inkjet head device for inkjet printers of the disclosure, the base plate is a composite plate formed by integrally connecting the fiberglass plate and the plastic plate, where the inkjet head assembly is mounted to form an integrated module, thus the disassembly, the assembly, or the maintenance are convenient.

A drop-on-demand printing method comprising performing the following steps in a printing head: discharging a first primary drop (x21A) of a first liquid to move along a first path; discharging a second primary drop (x21B) of a second liquid to move along a second path; controlling the flight of the first primary drop (x21A) and the second primary drop (x21B) to combine the first primary drop with the second primary drop into a combined drop (x22) at a connection point (x32) within a reaction chamber within the printing head so that a chemical reaction is initiated within a controlled environment of the reaction chamber between the first liquid of the first primary drop and the second liquid of the second primary drop; and controlling the flight of the combined drop (x22) at least by means of a stream of gas (x71A, x71B).

A novel inkjet recording device that allows occurrence of scattering to be suppressed without limiting the size of a printed character (font size) is provided. The novel inkjet recording device is so configured that a deflection positive electrode, a deflection negative electrode, or both the deflection positive electrode and the deflection negative electrode constituting a print head can be moved along a direction of ejection of ink droplets in correspondence with the size of a printed character.

A print head of an ink jet printer comprising: a cavity for the circulation of jets, delimited laterally by side walls, at least one nozzle for producing at least one ink jet in the cavity, at least one generator applying a charge to at least one ink jet, at least one electrode for sorting drops or segments of one or several of the jets intended for printing from drops or segments that are not used for printing, a slot, open onto the exterior of the cavity, a 1.sup.st gutter for recovering drops or segments not intended for printing, a 2.sup.nd gutter for recovering drops or segments that are not deflected and not intended for printing, this 2.sup.nd gutter comprising an input slot and at least one suction channel, an actuator in order to actuate the 2.sup.nd gutter, a 1.sup.st detector to detect an electrical charge of drops recovered in the 2.sup.nd gutter for recovering when the latter is in a closed position and/or a detector to detect, without contact, the passing of charged drops when the 2.sup.nd gutter is in an open position.

A print head of a continuous ink jet printer comprising: a cavity for the circulation of jets, at least one nozzle for producing at least one ink jet or solvent in the cavity, at least one electrode for sorting drops or segments of one or several of the jets intended for printing from drops or segments that are not used for printing, an outlet slot of the cavity, open onto the exterior of the cavity and allowing the exiting of the drops or segments of ink intended for printing, a 1.sup.st gutter for recovering drops or segments not intended for printing, a 2.sup.nd gutter for recovering drops or segments that are not deflected and not intended for printing, this 2.sup.nd gutter being mobile and comprising an input slot and at least one suction channel, a motor, to actuate the 2.sup.nd gutter for recovering in movement between a retracted position, in which it does not close off the outlet slot of the cavity, and a closed position, in which its input slot faces the outlet slot of the cavity; a seal between the print head and the 2.sup.nd gutter for recovering in the closed position of the latter.

The invention describes a number of methods and apparatus for shortening the inter-message gap on a continuous inkjet printer. Included is a novel phase testing methodology.

The present invention relates to an inkjet print head device for continuous inkjet printing, comprising a transducer; a charge electrode; a deflection plate; a gutter; and a holster; provided that the holster is receiving at least the aforementioned components, wherein the holster comprises an opening for a dedicated outlet for the ink in a printing mode, and wherein the holster further comprises an ink leakage detection area. Further the invention relates to a method and a system for detecting ink leakage in a print head. [ok]

In an existing service points granting method, service points are changed according to whether the ink ejection amount is corrected. However, changing the service points according to a user's purchases or purchase frequency for components or services has not been considered. A display unit displays products or services relevant to an ink jet recording apparatus, points corresponding to the products or services, and cumulative points possessed by each customer.
