Abstract
Printing device comprising an ink reservoir that supplies ink to an exit of a nozzle forming an ink drop and comprising also a power supply that creates an electrostatic field which generates an inkjet, said inkjet carrying a net electrostatic charge and being deposited on a substrate for printing a three-dimensional item by means of a continuous fiber, characterized in that the printing device also comprises one or a plurality of electrodes that deflect said inkjet from a default trajectory in a continually controlled manner through modifying the voltage applied to each jet-deflection electrode. The printing method comprises the step of deflecting said inkjet from a default trajectory by continually modifying the electrostatic field generated around the inkjet by one or a plurality of electrodes.
