  • Publication number: 20070040869
    Abstract: An injection molded print head for an assembly of print heads for large scale printing of, e.g., billboards, banners, posters and the like, includes a nozzle plate that is bonded to a manifold plate. The manifold plate is formed with ink-receiving nozzle chambers that are coaxially registered with respective nozzles in the nozzle plate. The bonded manifold and nozzle plates may be removed from the balance of the print head for nozzle cleaning/replacement purposes. A transducer holder supports piezoelectric transducers that are coaxially registered with respective nozzle chambers. A pulse transmitting plate is disposed between the transducer holder and the manifold plate for transmitting energy from the transducers to the nozzle chambers to thereby controllably discharge ink through selected nozzles. The nozzles may be arranged in columns, with each column being canted at an oblique angle relative to the direction of print head movement over the substrate to be printed.

  • Publication number: 20050203729
    Abstract: According to certain aspects of the invention a mobile voice communication device includes a wireless transceiver circuit for transmitting and receiving auditory information and data, a processor, and a memory storing executable instructions which when executed on the processor causes the mobile voice communication device to provide a selectable personality associated with a user interface to a user of the mobile voice communication device. The executable instructions include implementing on the device a user interface that employs the different user prompts having the selectable personality, wherein each selectable personality of the different user prompts is defined and mapped to data stored in at least one database in the mobile voice communication device. The mobile voice communication device may include a decoder that recognizes a spoken user input and provides a corresponding recognized word, and a speech synthesizer that synthesizes a word corresponding to the recognized word.
