Hi'm Marshall Brain with today's question, how does an ink
jet printer work? An inkjet printer is any printer that
fires extremely small droplets of ink onto paper to create
an image. If you've ever looked at a piece of
paper that's come out of an inkjet printer, you know that,
first of all, the dots are incredibly small, thirty dots
(00:48):
per millimeter or more, and the dots are positioned very
precisely on the paper. Different types of inkjet printers form
their droplets of inc in different ways, but by far
the most popular technique is the bubble jet. In a
bubble jet printer, tiny resistors create heat, and this heat
vaporizes ink to create a bubble. In other words, the
(01:10):
ink is turning to steam and creating a bubble. In
the process. The expansion that creates the bubble, causes a
droplet deform, and then it dejects from the print head.
A typical bubble jet print head has sixty four or
eight tiny nozzles, and all of them can fire a
droplet simultaneously. This allows an inkjet printer to print on
(01:32):
an entire sheet of paper extremely quickly, even though the
dots are so small. For more on this and thousands
of other topics. Because it how stuff works dot Com,

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
