Abstract
An improved printing ribbon for use between a writing electrode and a permeable counterelectrode across which a pulse of predetermined magnitude and duration is applied. The material of the ribbon is such that it experiences multiple electric breakdowns causing it to be propelled through the permeable counterelectrode onto a record sheet held adjacent the permeable counterelectrode outside the sandwich. In a preferred embodiment, the ribbon is provided with a metallized coating which serves as the permeable counterelectrode.
