Abstract

The use of lumped resistive elements (22, 24, 32) in an ink feed channel (10) between an ink-propelling element, such as a resistor, (12) and an ink supply plenum (16) provide a means of achieving resistive decoupling and meniscus resonance control with a mini­ mum of deleterious side effects and design compromises typical of prior art solutions.
