Technical Examples

The present invention relates to a printer system that incorporates an electrically addressable array of micro electro-mechanical switches of arbitrary width. In one embodiment, array of micro electro-mechanical switches of arbitrary width that comprises an electrostatic array used to attract fusible toner or electrically charged ink droplets from a hopper or ink jet assembly to a piece of paper or other printable substrate. The electrostatic array uses electrostatic latching to create the charged environment to allow the toner or ink to be attracted from the hopper or ink jet assembly toward the array. A piece of paper is interposed between the array and the hopper or ink jet assembly. Additional micro electro-mechanical switches control the release of the ink droplets from the ink jet assembly. The micro electro-mechanical switches each comprise a sealed cell that relies on pneumatic restoration forces to insure that switch contacts can be successfully broken as desired.
