Continuous ink jet printing process using asymmetric heating drop deflection

摘要

An ink jet printing process comprising the steps of;a) providing an ink jet printer in which a continuous stream of ink jet ink is emitted from a nozzle that is responsive to digital data signals;b) loading the printer with an ink jet recording element;c) loading the printer with an ink jet ink comprising an organic solvent; andd) ejecting ink from a thermally-steered continuous ink jet print head onto one of the ink jet recording elements in response to the digital data signals.
