    摘要: An apparatus for printing an image is provided. The apparatus includes a source of ink. A droplet forming mechanism is operable in a first state to form droplets from the source having a first volume traveling along a first desired path and in a second state to form droplets from the source having a second volume traveling along the first desired path. The droplet forming mechanism is positioned proximate the source. A first system selectively applies a first force to the source such that selected droplets formed from the source by the droplet forming mechanism travel along a second desired path. The first system is positioned proximate the source. A second system applies a second force to the droplets traveling along at least one of the first desired path and the second desired path. The second force is applied in a direction such that the droplets having the first volume diverge from the droplets having the second volume.
