INK PRINTER
By Mariel Tapia and Triana Jimenez
n inkjet printer is any printer that places extremely small droplets of ink onto paper to create an image. If you look at a piece of paper that has come out of an inkjet printer, you know that: - The dots are extremely small - The dots are positioned very precisely - The dots can have different colors combined together to create photo-quality images
Since the 1980s, inkjet printers have grown in popularity.
Print head: The core of an inkjet printer, the print head contains a series of nozzles that are used to spray drops of ink.
Belt: A belt is used to attach the print head assembly to the stepper motor. Stabilizer bar: The print head assembly uses a stabilizer bar to ensure that movement is precise and controlled.
Stepper motors: This one control the movement of most parts of an inkjet printer.
Rollers: A set of rollers pull the paper in from the tray or feeder and advance the paper when the print head assembly is ready for another pass.
Paper tray/feeder: Most inkjet printers have a tray that you load the paper into. The feeder typically snaps open at an angle on the back of the printer, allowing you to place paper in it.
