Abstract: 1385137 Printers INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORP 4 Sept 1973 [13 Oct 1972] 41513/73 Heading G4H In an ink drop printer, one or more of a predefined sequence of ink-drop-deflection signals can be skipped through to speed up printing. After a shift register has been loaded via another shift register with a bit sequence for a given column of a character dot matrix, from a character generator, the bit sequence is shifted out, each "1" bit gating a slow clock train to a counter and permitting a D/A converter fed by the counter to control charging of a respective ink drop which is then deflected by a constant field by an amount dependent on the charge and therefore count. Each "0" bit zeroes the D/A converter output (so that the ink drop is caught in a gutter rather than deflected on to the paper) and gates a fast clock train to the counter so that the count position not required for printing is skipped through fast. To reduce ink spatter &c.' two or more sweeps down each column are made, with adjacent drops being deposited in different sweeps. A staircase generator may replace the counter and D/A converter.

Abstract: An interactive ink jet printer prints characters of a language from left to right or right to left in accordance with the direction in which the language is normally written. The signals for the direction in which a motor, which moves ink droplet supply device relative to a recording medium, the signals from a grating, which indicates the direction of motion of the ink droplet supply device and its position relative to a reference position, and the signals for the location of the ink droplet supply device at the reference position are changed whenever the direction of character printing is to be reversed.

Abstract: 1405197 Ink drop printers INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORP 14 May 1973 [27 June 1972] 22760/73 Heading G4H An ink-drop printer 1-30 comprises means 37-57 for detecting failure in synchronisation between drop charging and drop formation. Test signals 41-43, 81 or 65 (ramp or pulse signals, Fig. 3, not shown) are applied to the charge electrode 18 so as to cause otherwise uncharged drops to be deflected into a gutter 35 or 36; the synchronization may be effected line-by-line (e.g. in the home position for each line), between characters or within the matrix boundaries of individual characters. Each gutter contains a sensor which translates charge into current level; the use of gutter 35 produces current levels smaller than those normally encountered during printing, whereas the levels obtainable from gutter 36 are higher since a greater potential is required to deflect the drops thereto (this can also detect lack of potential 25 on deflecting plate 22). The resulting signal A or B is changed to a voltage level and fed with a reference 55 to a comparator 57, the resulting difference signal being used to adjust the timing of drop separation in a piezo-electric crystal driver 15 relative to the signals applied to charge electrode 18. Another embodiment similar to that of Fig. 1 is described with reference to Fig 2 (not shown). Co-pending Application No. 41107/73 describes a similar system for a plurality of ink streams.
