INKJET PRINTHEAD WITH FILTER STRUCTURE AT INLET TO INK CHAMBERS

摘要

An inkjet printhead that has an array of droplet ejectors supported on a printhead integrated circuit (IC). Each of the droplet ejectors has a nozzle aperture and an actuator for ejecting a droplet of ink through the nozzle aperture. Each of the droplet ejectors has a chamber in which the actuator is positioned, the chamber having an inlet for fluid communication with an ink supply. A filter structure in positioned the inlet to inhibit ingress of contaminants into the chamber.
