<p>In a multiple-nozzle ink-jet head having a plurality of nozzles, crosstalk between adjacent elements is suppressed. The head comprises nozzles (12), pressure compartments (14) and bimorph drivers. The bimorph driver includes a piezoelement (19) formed on a vibrator (18). The vibrator (18) includes a linear portion (18-1) for converting the force of the piezoelement (19) into a displacement, and a nonlinear portion (18-2) between the linear portion (18-1) and a fixed part of the vibrator. The nonlinear portion (18-2) keeps the energy of strain from being transferred to the fixed part, thus decreasing crosstalk.</p> |
