Abstract
Drop formation devices are provided with drop formation waveforms to modulate liquid jets to cause portions of the liquid jets to form print drops having a jet breakoff length Lin a print drop breakoff length range Rand non-print drops having a jet breakoff length Lin a non-print drop breakoff length range R. A timing delay device shifts the timing of the waveforms supplied to drop formation devices of first and second nozzle groups so that print drops formed from first and second nozzle groups are not aligned relative to each other. A charging device includes a charge electrode that is positioned relative to the breakoff length Land breakoff length Lsuch that there is a difference in electric field strength at the two breakoff lengths to produce a print drop charge state on print drops and a non-print drop charge state on non-print drops.
