No, that is "bubble jet". Inkjets are proper resonant squirts, usually piezo driven. And, for that reason, inkjets work with a much wider variety of liquids. Taken to the extreme, you have full color 3d prints with incredible precision: https://youtu.be/4IkvzMJihuY | ||

The Epson Stylus 440 (640?) we had in the family when I was a child was the first time I encountered this piezoelectric effect in technology. Back then you'd get all these paper manuals (or at least we did in India). I think the little pictures they drew were quite descriptive: https://wiki.roshangeorge.dev/w/File:Screenshot_-_Epson_Tech... https://wiki.roshangeorge.dev/w/File:Screenshot_-_Epson_Manu... Boy, there was so little content in those days. You didn't have the whole Internet so we used to actually read manuals for entertainment hahaha. Thank you for your link. That's a sick resin printer from Mimaki. How cool that they started out as a 2D printer company and decided to just layer things up! | ||
