Abstract

A novel, electrostatic scanning ink jet method and apparatus dynamically electrostatically scanning ink jet system is provided by applying a time varying potential to an electrode located adjacent the continuous stream portion of ink emitted by a jet at a location prior to break-up of the continuous stream portion into droplets.
