A screen mesh ink drop catcher assembly (28), which is adapted to catch non-printed ink drops (58) while not catching printed ink drops (46), includes a housing (30) having a fluid return channel (32), and a screen (60) extending from the housing shaped to collect unwanted ink drops. The housing of the ink drop catcher assembly may include at least one surface, at least a portion of which is grooved and operatively associated with the screen such that ink drops flow from the screen to the fluid return channel. The housing of the ink drop catcher assembly may include a screen support (70) with the screen being at least partially positioned about the screen support. The screen support of the ink drop catcher assembly may include at least one surface, at least a portion of which is grooved and operatively associated with the screen such that ink drops flow from the screen to the fluid return channel. <IMAGE> |
