Abstract

An electrostatic point printer head includes a dielectric substrate that carries a plurality of point electrodes, a connector and a network of conductors enabling interconnections between the several electrodes and with the connector. The dielectric substrate is a sheet fixed by one of its surfaces to a rigid support; the network of conductors comprises tracks plated on both surfaces of the substrate sheet and the electrodes are contact studs passing through the thickness of the substrate.
