ABSTRACT:
A drop ejection device includes a group of orifices adapted to eject fluid drops. The fluids ejected from the orifices merge into a fluid drop. The orifices are separated by walls which define the orifices. The merging of the fluid into a fluid drop depends on the spacing of the orifices and the waveform applied to actuators which cause the fluid to be ejected.
