Method of manufacture of a dual nozzle single horizontal actuator ink jet printer

摘要

A method of manufacture of an ink jet printer having a dual nozzle single horizontal actuator wherein an array of nozzles are formed on a substrate utilizing planar monolithic deposition, lithographic and etching processes. Multiple ink jet heads are preferably formed simultaneously on a single planar substrate. The substrate can be a silicon wafer. The print heads are preferably formed utilizing standard vlsi/ulsi processing. Integrated drive electronics are preferably formed on the same substrate. The integrated drive electronics can comprise a CMOS process. Ink can be ejected from the substrate substantially normal to the substrate.
