摘要： The invention provides methods, systems, and drivers for controlling an inkjet printing system. The driver may include logic including a processor, memory coupled to the logic, and a fire pulse generator circuit coupled to the logic. The fire pulse generator may include a connector to facilitate coupling the driver to a print head. The fire pulse generator circuit may also include a fixed current source circuit adapted to generate a fire pulse with a constant slew rate that facilitates easy adjustment of ink drop size. The logic is adapted to receive an image and to convert the image to an image data file. The image data file is adapted to be used by the driver to trigger the print head to deposit ink into pixel wells on a substrate as the substrate is moved in a print direction. Numerous other aspects are disclosed.

摘要： The invention provides a print head parking structure that includes a solvent and/or surface treatment bath for inkjet print heads. Print heads may be returned to the print head parking structure after a substrate has been printed, after one or more printing passes, and/or frequently enough to prevent ink from drying on or clogging the print heads. Once sealed within the print head parking structure, the print heads (or a portion thereof) may be dipped in a solvent bath or pool to dissolve or wash away any ink that has been deposited on the print heads.

摘要： A cabinet for housing an ink supply is provided for use with an inkjet printing system. The cabinet, ink supply, and related structures are set apart from inkjet print heads in the inkjet printing system. Accordingly, the cabinet provides a location to store and supply quantities of ink and may make service and replacement of parts and/or consumables simpler and more accessible. The cabinet also houses components used to process and/or supply ink to inkjet print heads such as solvent, fluid delivery mechanisms (e.g., pumps, gas pressure devices, etc.), tubes, sensors, filters, exhaust, and drainage.

摘要： Methods and apparatus for cleaning a nozzle plate of an inkjet print head are provided. A first method includes positioning a cleaning medium proximate the inkjet print head, determining a pressure for a pressure roller to apply against the cleaning medium, contacting the cleaning medium with the pressure roller with the determined pressure, and moving the cleaning medium relative to the inkjet print head so as to clean the inkjet print head. The method also includes purging ink from the inkjet print head prior to the pressure roller contacting the cleaning medium and pre-jetting ink from the inkjet print head after moving the cleaning medium. Numerous other aspects are provided.
