Abstract:
A print head for an inkjet printer includes a nozzle, a first electrode positioned to receive an ink droplet from the nozzle, a second electrode positioned to receive the ink droplet from the first electrode, and a controller configured to operate the first electrode to ionize the ink droplet and set a flight speed of the ink droplet. The controller is further configured to selectively activate the second electrode to deflect the ink droplet in response to the print head changing from a horizontal printing orientation to a vertical printing orientation.

Claim (Index 8):
An inkjet printer, comprising:\n a horizontal printing configuration; a vertical printing configuration; and a print frame, the print frame comprising:\n a swivel; \n at least one side rail mounted to the swivel; \n a transverse rail mounted to slide along a length of the side rails; \n a print head mounted to slide along a length of the transverse rail; \n the print head further mounted to rotate around the transverse rail; \n the print head comprising:\n a nozzle mounted to a linear actuator; \n a first electrode positioned after the nozzle along an ink droplet path;\n a controller configured to set an initial flight speed of an ink droplet in the ink droplet path; \n a second electrode positioned after the first electrode along the ink droplet path; \n \n the controller configured to rotate the print frame to change the inkjet printer between the horizontal printing configuration and the vertical printing configuration, wherein the print head is, when the inkjet printer is in the horizontal printing configuration, configured to face a horizontal print surface and to discharge an ink droplet in a vertical direction to a printing medium on the horizontal print surface and the print head is, when the inkjet printer is in the vertical printing configuration, configured to face a vertical print surface and discharge an ink droplet in a horizontal direction to the printing medium; \n the controller further configured to operate the second electrode in response to rotation from the horizontal printing configuration to the vertical printing configuration to apply a vertical correction to an ink droplet in the ink droplet path and to change the initial flight speed of the ink droplet based on a distance of the nozzle from a print surface when in the vertical printing configuration.
