Definitions
- Printing system for controlling the print head of a printer cartridge
- the invention relates to a printing system for controlling the print head of a printer cartridge according to the preamble of claim 1.
- printer cartridges in which the print head is integrated in the printer cartridge.
- Such printer cartridges are conventionally filled with water-based printer ink.
- water-based printer inks are not suitable because they do not wipe dry there. Water-based printing inks can be easily wiped off such surfaces even after a long time by hand.
- US 5,946,012 A discloses an ink jet printing system for printer cartridges in which the ink ejection elements arranged in a matrix are driven by means of a column signal (master signal) and a line signal (address signal).
- the function of the control is described in particular in this document in column 23 with reference to the figures 25 to 27 given there.
- There heating resistors are selectively controlled by means of associated field effect transistors, so that the heating resistors produce an ink ejection in a known manner.
- the invention has for its object to provide a printing system for controlling the printhead of conventional printer cartridges, with the good and In particular wipe-resistant printing results for industrial marking can also be realized on non-absorbent surfaces.
- the heating elements of the ink ejection elements are driven with equal voltage values for the column and row signals of the array.
- the heating elements are actuated with relatively high and long voltage pulses.
- the column signals which may also be referred to as master signals
- master signals have master pulses which have a lower signal amplitude than the address pulses of the address signal, which may be referred to as a row signal.
- a division of the address signals and of the master signals is provided, so that the control can take place here with different voltage values and preferably also with different pulse widths.
- an optimal printing result is achieved with a printer ink with a high alcohol content, ethanol preferably being used as the alcohol.
- printer ink can be used with high alcohol content in these conventional printer cartridges with built-in printhead and optimal printing results can be achieved that are wiping on non-absorbent surfaces immediately after printing.
- the driving of the heating elements of the lower-energy ink ejection elements according to the present invention takes into consideration the fact that water-based ink is higher in boiling point than the alcohol-based ink.
- Root pulses is significantly lower than the signal amplitude of the address pulses.
- the signal amplitude of the stem pulses in the range between 6 volts and 9 volts while the address pulses have approximately a signal amplitude of 12 volts.
- pulse widths for the address pulses in the range between 1700 ns and 2100 ns achieved optimum printing results on different non-absorbent surfaces.
- the pulse width of the stem pulses was 2800ns.
- the printer cartridge with printhead used is a conventional printer cartridge, which is itself provided for water-based printer ink.
- Such printer cartridges with integrated printhead are very reliable and inexpensive as a mass product in the purchase.
- the printing system according to the invention may optionally also be designed as an adaptation interface between a conventional controller and the associated conventional printer cartridges.
- the printer ink for use in a printer cartridge of the inventive printing system has an alcohol volume fraction of over 70%.
- the ethanol-based printing ink is accompanied by one or more additives which enable the use of the printing ink in a conventional printer cartridge and / or the properties, for example with respect to background wetting, adhesion, drying behavior of the ink.
- FIG. 1 shows the printing system in the form of a block diagram
- Figure 2 is a detail of a matrix arrangement of the printhead forming ink ejection elements
- FIG. 3 shows a representation of the address pulses and the master pulses.
- the printing system shown in Figure 1 can be entered via an input unit 1, a desired print job.
- This is implemented in a conventional system controller 2 in suitable address signals AS and master signals SS, which are suitable for driving a conventional printer cartridge with integrated printhead.
- Downstream signal controllers SRI and SR2 now output the appropriate signal patterns on the output side, which are suitable for controlling the print head in the printer cartridge filled with alcohol-based printer ink.
- a pulse width control PW By means of a pulse width control PW, the address pulses of the address signal AS are reduced in their pulse width, so that the address pulses have a smaller pulse width than the Stanimimpulse, which is the preferred embodiment.
- the master signal SS2 occurring at the output of SR2 has a lower pulse amplitude fixed by means of a regulated voltage supply 4 than the address signal AS1.
- the change of the original master signal SS to the output-side master signal SS2 takes place in the signal regulator SR2, which by means of a regulated voltage supply 4, the transformation of the master signal SS to the voltage-reduced master signal SS2 performs.
- the address signal AS1 and the master signal SS2 are now used to drive the print head in the printer cartridge 5.
- the master signal SS2 in combination with the address signal AS1 is decisive for the control and the heating of the heating elements of the ink ejection elements of the print head taking place as a result. This heating is known to heat the printer ink and thereby expel it in the form of small drops of ink on the printhead.
- Such a controlled printer cartridge which is filled with an alcohol-based ink with an alcohol volume fraction of well over 70%, preferably in the range between 80% and 95%, is very well suited for printing non-absorbent surfaces, of course, printed on absorbing surfaces easily can be.
- a voltage reduction of the individual pulses of the master signal in conjunction with an address signal reduced only in the pulse width has yielded the best smear-resistant printing results.
- the matrix arrangement of FIG. 2 shows that the heating resistors R, which form the heating elements of the individual ink ejection elements, are arranged in a matrix and are driven by respectively assigned field effect transistors FT.
- a common reference potential - DC voltage or ground potential - be applied to the lines Gl to G3.
- the master signals and address signals can be fed to a plurality of columns and rows of the matrix, so that it is also possible to speak of column signals (master signals) and line signals (address signals).
- the trunk lines SS21 to SS23 trunk signals SS2 can be supplied separately, while according to the address lines ASI l to AS 13 address signals ASl can be supplied individually.
- the heating element Rl shown above for ink ejection it is necessary that the master line SS21 and the address line ASIl each a master signal SS2 with a lower voltage and an address signal ASL are supplied with a lower pulse width simultaneously, it being to ensure that the Address pulse within the larger time window of the associated root pulse of the master signal SS2 is applied to the field effect transistor FTl.
- FIG. 3 shows the time assignment of master pulse SI and address pulse AI, based on the same time base t.
- the pulse amplitudes are here at 8VoIt (SS2) and 12VoIt (ASl).
