摘要

BF/AN 6562 SKEWED INK JET PRINTER WITH OVERLAPPING PRINT LINES of the Disclosure An ink jet printer for printing a print image on a print medium selectively deposits ink drops at a plurality of print positions on the medium with each print position defining a print line on the medium extending in the direction of relative movement of the medium. A means for generating a plurality of drop jets directs the jet toward the print medium. A means is provided for selectively deflecting drops from each drop jet to print positions in an associated group of the plurality of print positions. At least two of the print positions in each group of print positions define print lines which substantially overlap the print lines defined by print positions in adjacent groups of print positions.
