Abstract

A charge plate is fabricated for an ink jet printer. Initially, a ceramic charge plate substrate (10) is provided, the substrate having an edge (12), a top (14), and a bottom (18). The ceramic charge plate substrate (10) is then edge printed to define a charging face on the edge of the ceramic charge plate substrate (10). A conductive path is completed from the charging face to the top of the ceramic charge plate substrate to create a charge plate. Charge drivers are provided on the charge plate top surface. The charge plate is top patterned to allow an electrical connection from the charge drivers to the charge plate. Finally, the top patterned surface is coated with a dielectric material (16).
