ABSTRACT:
An ink jet printhead nozzle arrangement having an ink chamber and a flexible wall forming one of the walls of said chamber. The ink ejection port is formed substantially centrally on the flexible wall with a rim surrounding it. The flexible wall is adapted to move independently of said rim such that upon actuation the flexible wall moves into said ink chamber forcing ink therein out through the said ejection port.
