Printing System With a Fluid Circulating Element

According to an example, a printing system may include a drop ejecting element and a fluid circulating element corresponding to the drop ejecting element. The printing system may also include a logic device that is to receive a data stream addressed to the drop ejecting element, determine whether the data stream indicates that the drop ejecting element is to be energized, and in response to a determination that the data stream does not indicate that the drop ejecting element is to be energized, energize the fluid circulating element.

FLUID EJECTION DEVICE

A fluid ejection device includes a fluid slot, a first fluid ejection chamber communicated with the fluid slot and including a first drop ejecting element, a second fluid ejection chamber including a second drop ejecting element, and a fluid circulation path including a first portion communicated with the fluid slot and the second fluid ejection chamber, and a second portion communicated with the first fluid ejection chamber and the second fluid ejection chamber, with the fluid circulation path including a fluid circulating element within the first portion.

CONTROLLING WAVEFORMS TO REDUCE CROSS-TALK BETWEEN INKJET NOZZLES

An inkjet printhead includes two groups of interleaved nozzles. First and second sets of drop-formation waveforms are associated with the groups of nozzles to selectively cause portions of a liquid jet to break off into drops. A timing delay device time-shifts the second-group waveforms relative to those associated with the first-group waveforms. A charging-electrode waveform having portions with first and second potentials is provided to a charging electrode. The waveform energies of the second-group waveforms is larger than the waveform energies of the corresponding first-group waveforms so that printing drops break off from the liquid jets while the charging-electrode is at the first potential, and non-printing drops break off from the liquid jets while the charging-electrode is at the second potential.

Dual-mode inkjet nozzle operation

An inkjet printhead includes an inkjet nozzle with a main actuator and a peripheral actuator in a firing chamber. A determination is made as to whether the inkjet nozzle has sat idle, e.g., not firing for a threshold period of time. When the inkjet nozzle has sat idle, both the main actuator and the peripheral actuator are activated to jet at least one ink drop. When the inkjet nozzle has not sat idle, only the main actuator is activated to jet ink drops.

FLUID EJECTION DEVICE

A fluid ejection device may include a series of spaced two-sided walls forming three channels therebetween. Each of the three channels may contain a drop ejector. The device may further include a fluid circulating element to circulate fluid across the drop ejector within each of the channels.

INVERTED TIJ

A fluid ejection die includes a substrate including an array of nozzles.

Influence of transform of quality to an entire liquid discharge head is suppressed when a heat resistor and a covering portion are electrically connected to each other. To address this problem, a liquid discharge head substrate includes fuse portions for respective heat resistor arrays.

Printing system with a fluid circulating element

According to an example, a printing system may include a drop ejecting element and a fluid circulating element corresponding to the drop ejecting element. The printing system may also include a logic device that is to receive a data stream addressed to the drop ejecting element, determine whether the data stream indicates that the drop ejecting element is to be energized, and in response to a determination that the data stream does not indicate that the drop ejecting element is to be energized, energize the fluid circulating element.
