PRINT HEAD DIE

摘要

Various configurations of print head die are described. In an example, a first print head die has first print structures disposed along a major dimension thereof perpendicular to the media path, the first print structures including a leading print structure with respect to the media path. A second print head die independent of the first print head die has second print structures disposed along a major dimension thereof perpendicular to the media path, the second print head die being staggered with respect to the first print head die along the media path, the second print structures including a leading print structure with respect to the media path. A portion of the second print structures overlap a portion of the first print structures by an extent between a minimum value and a linear function of a separation between the respective leading print structures of the first and second print head dies.

1. An apparatus to print on media moved along a media path, comprising:
a first print head die having first print structures disposed along a major dimension thereof perpendicular to the media path, the first print structures including a leading print structure with respect to the media path; and a second print head die independent of the first print head die, the second print head die having second print structures disposed along a major dimension thereof perpendicular to the media path, the second print head die being staggered with respect to the first print head die along the media path, the second print structures including a leading print structure with respect to the media path; wherein a portion of the second print structures overlap a portion of the first print structures by an extent between a minimum value and a linear function of a separation between the respective leading print structures of the first and second print head dies.
