ABSTRACT:
An edge-shooter ink-jet print head has a row of nozzles extending in the z-direction on the edge of a head module. The print head includes members into which chambers are formed which, in turn, are equipped with devices for ejecting ink from each chamber to respectively assigned ink nozzles. The ink jets are expelled in the x-direction. The print head comprises a plurality of plates stacked in the y-direction. The ink paths are of equal length at least within each module. In a preferred embodiment, the row of nozzles is formed in an additional part which is also a chamber carrying part. After the production of various module plates by parallel processing of a glass plate, including the formation of cavities of a defined depth by etching and fine grinding, the parts are separated and then joined to form a module. Conductor tracks and PZT elements are provided.
