ABSTRACT:
A substrate with banks having end channels is provided to advantageously allow excess fluid collecting on one part of the substrate to flow to another part of the substrate. An excess of fluid collecting in a particular area of the substrate may flow to an area of the substrate where it would not interfere with the manufacturing process. The end channels may be modified with wave breakers that act as buffers to redirect excess fluid and/or with capillary-force homogeneity enhancers that pull excess fluid away from other parts of the substrate. The end channels may also contain line-end reservoirs that provide additional room for excess fluid to collect.
