  • providing a substrate;

    depositing a doped layer on the substrate and etching said layer to create an array of nozzles on the substrate with a nozzle chamber in communication with each nozzle; and

    utilizing planar monolithic deposition, lithographic and etching processes to create a paddle arranged in each nozzle chamber each paddle being pivotally arranged relative to the nozzle and having a current-carrying device therein so that when a magnetic field is applied to the paddle, a lorenz force is exerted on the paddle to cause pivoting of the paddle and ejection of ink from the nozzle.
