ABSTRACT:
Two consecutive voltage pulses of equal duration (T.sub.1, T.sub.2) and opposite polarities are applied to the control circuit. The two pulses which are combined together and amplified give rise to a signal of a particular wave form, which is applied to the piezoelectric transducer (104) for the expulsion of a drop of ink, free from disturbances caused by vibration of the meniscus at the time of separation of the drop, and to provide for cancellation of the reflected waves in the conduit.
The transducer (104) forms in the ink conduit (102) a pressure wave of complex form, a first portion thereof contributing to the expulsion of a drop of ink and a second portion which is suitably out-of-phase with respect to the first portion neutralizing the reflection phenomena caused by the first portion. An amplifier transistor (118, 120) is biased by means of a resistive network (114) supplied with a constant reference voltage (Vr) and is connected at its output to an RC filter (122) for modifying the slope of the signal which is amplified by the transistor (118).
