A method of controlling a pressure of a fluid in a pressure chamber, which pressure chamber is delimited by an actuator membrane having a first piezoelectric portion arranged in a central zone of the actuator membrane and at least one second piezoelectric portion arranged in at least one peripheral zone of the actuator membrane; and an ink jet printing device. In a neutral stage, a first flexure state of the actuator membrane is provided by applying first and second voltages to respective piezoelectric portions. In an activation stage, the first and second voltages are temporarily varied, without reversing their polarity, such that a curvature of the central part of the actuator membrane and a curvature of the peripheral part of the actuator membrane are changed in opposite directions, in order to expell a droplet of fluid through a nozzle. |
