Abstract
A three-dimensional (3D) object printer has an ejector head with a single nozzle that is fluidly connected to a plurality of orifices in an orifice plate of the ejector head. An ejection of material through the single nozzle is emitted through the plurality of orifices simultaneously. In one embodiment, some of the orifices are oriented at an angle to an axis perpendicular to the orifice plate. This configuration enables a structure to be formed with a predetermined material density without needing to increase the ejection frequency significantly or requiring the printer to incorporate multiple ejector heads.
