    Abstract: An inkjet printhead with a nozzle plate that has an exterior surface with formations for reducing its co-efficient of static friction. By reducing the co-efficient of static friction, there is less likelihood that paper dust or other contaminants will clog the nozzles in the nozzle plate. Static friction, or “stiction” as it has become known, allows dust particles to “stick” to nozzle plates and thereby clog nozzles. By patterning the exterior of the nozzle plate with raised formations, dust particles can only contact the outer extremities of each formation. This reduces friction between the particles and the nozzle plate so that any particles that contact the plate are less likely to attach, and if they do attach, they are more likely to be removed by printhead maintenance cleaning cycles.

    Abstract: The described embodiments relate to slotted substrates and methods of forming same. One exemplary method forms a first slot portion into a first surface of a substrate, the first slot portion defining a footprint at the first surface. The method also forms a second slot portion through the first slot portion; and, forms a third slot portion through a second surface of the substrate sufficiently to intercept the second slot portion to form a fluid-handling slot through the substrate.

    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a fluid injection device. The method of the present invention applies a compensated geometric shape of the unetched isolating portions to increase the additional compensated portion for etching, or the ion implanting process to reduce the etching rate of the unetched isolating portions. Thus, crosstalk or overshoot in the isolating portions of the fluid injection device can be reduced, and the fluid injection device can be precisely manufactured in a small size.
