ABSTRACT:
An ionographic printer directs a stream of ions from a source to a charge receptor to create an electrostatic latent image thereon. The ion stream passes through a relatively large aperture having associated therewith a focusing pinch electrode for narrowing the ion stream to a preselected width, displacing electrodes for positioning the narrowed ion stream within the aperture, and focus electrodes. Varying the biases of the displacing electrodes causes the ion stream to scan across the aperture to deposit multiple spots of charged areas at desired locations on the receptor. Varying the biases of the focus electrodes cures positional and ion-stream cross-section anomalies.
