00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 1: Hi'm Marshall Brain with today's question, how does an ink

8
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:35,839
Speaker 1: jet printer work? An inkjet printer is any printer that

9
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:39,640
Speaker 1: fires extremely small droplets of ink onto paper to create

10
00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:41,960
Speaker 1: an image. If you've ever looked at a piece of

11
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:44,519
Speaker 1: paper that's come out of an inkjet printer, you know that,

12
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 1: first of all, the dots are incredibly small, thirty dots

13
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 1: per millimeter or more, and the dots are positioned very

14
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 1: precisely on the paper. Different types of inkjet printers form

15
00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 1: their droplets of inc in different ways, but by far

16
00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 1: the most popular technique is the bubble jet. In a

17
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:07,240
Speaker 1: bubble jet printer, tiny resistors create heat, and this heat

18
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 1: vaporizes ink to create a bubble. In other words, the

19
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,440
Speaker 1: ink is turning to steam and creating a bubble. In

20
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,319
Speaker 1: the process. The expansion that creates the bubble, causes a

21
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 1: droplet deform, and then it dejects from the print head.

22
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 1: A typical bubble jet print head has sixty four or

23
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:28,320
Speaker 1: eight tiny nozzles, and all of them can fire a

24
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 1: droplet simultaneously. This allows an inkjet printer to print on

25
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 1: an entire sheet of paper extremely quickly, even though the

26
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:40,399
Speaker 1: dots are so small. For more on this and thousands
