Abstract

A novel, electrostatic, scanning- ink-jet method and apparatus for a dynamically, electrostatically scanning-ink-jet system is provided. Design problems created by the number of elements involved in selective deflection are avoided by applying a time varying potential to an electrode (3) located adjacent the continuous-stream (2) portion of ink emitted by a jet at a location prior to breakup of the continuous-stream portion into droplets (8, 9). <IMAGE>
