Abstract

See full text

An inkjet printing apparatus and method of operating an inkjet printhead provides an inkjet orifice of the printhead that is located within a predetermined spacing of less than 1000 micrometers, and more preferably in a range of 50-500 micrometers for printing high resolution images. Electrical drive signals are provided to the printhead, the drive signals being adapted to enable the printhead to generate a droplet. In response to the drive signals, a free spherical droplet is formed between the orifice and a receiver member and deposits a droplet upon the receiver member substantially without presence of an attached or detached ligament of printing liquid that would otherwise provide an artifact mark on the receiver member.
