Abstract
An ink-drop generator (33) of an ink-jet printer is characterized in that a resonating ink cavity (6) from which the ink is supplied via a nozzle plate (39) onto a printing substrate has its lateral walls (7, 8, 9, 10) perpendicular to the nozzle plate (39). The end-nozzles may thus be positioned adjacent to the walls (9, 10) of the cavity (6).
