A printer head for an ink jet printer includes at least two independent heating means (102-1, 102-2) arranged to heat the head at different rates. Sensing means (TH) determines the head temperature, and control means (Fig 3A) is arranged to drive the heating means (102-1 or 102-2) selectively via transistors Tr₁, Tr₂. Thereby the printer head can be heated rapidly when it is first switched on and waiting time before ink discharge can begin is reduced.

At least a part of said layers is removed between said heat generating resistive elements (3) adjacent to each other.
摘要:
A recording method in which ink is ejected by thermal energy produced by a heat generating element of a recording head in response to application of a driving signal thereto including the steps of changing a waveform of the driving signal in accordance with a temperature of the recording head; and selecting a fixed waveform of the drive signal when the temperature of the recording head exceeds a predetermined level.

An ink jet recording apparatus including a recording head (5012) for performing print recording by ejecting ink from an ejection orifice by thermal energy; temperature sensors (5024) provided in the recording head; a temperature calculation means (101B) for calculating a temperature change of the recording head (5012) in a unit time as a discrete value on the basis of the supply of energy input to the recording head, and for calculating the temperature change of the recording head by accumulating the discrete value in the unit time; a temperature presuming means for presuming a head temperature by both a calculated value of the temperature change and an adopted base value of the head temperature; a detection means for detecting a difference between the head presumed temperature and a detected temperature sensed by the temperature sensors; an update means for updating the adopted base value of the head temperature by the difference; and a control means for controlling ejection of the ink to be stabilized in accordance with the head presumed temperature.
摘要:
The body of a piezoelectrically operable ink jet printhead (12) is mounted in an upper side surface groove (48) formed in a mounting plate member (14). A rear bottom section (26) of the printhead body has an exposed top side surface portion (30) which is flush with the top side (44) of the mounting plate member and terminates forwardly of its rear end (42). A high density parallel array of mutually spaced linear conductive traces (52) is formed on this exposed top side surface portion, the traces being used to transmit electrical operating signals from a separate electronic driver to piezoelectrically drivable channel sidewall sections (36) within the interior of the printhead body. A multitiered printed circuit board (16) secured to the top side of the mounting plate member is used to connect the printhead to the electronic driver. The circuit board has a series of linear traces (52a) formed on its bottom side which register with and are soldered to the closely spaced printhead body traces (52), a spaced series of lower density spacing contact pads (54a) formed on its top side and releasably engageable with correspondingly spaced contact pads on the electronic driver, and internal crossover circuitry (62) that operatively connects the high density underside linear traces of the circuit board to its lower density top side contact pads.
