Abstract (en)

[origin: DE10038774A1] The printer powder ink air transporter creates the air flow in an ionic air flow generator (2) comprising electrodes (6) connected to a voltage source (32) and covering the printing sheet (50). The amount of ionic air flow can be controlled by a flow field (39) and a blower unit conveys paper. Powder is transported from a powder holder in the airflow of the ionic flow generator.
