The two nozzle arrays for each CMY color are divided symmetrically left and right along the M line. This makes it completely compatible with bi-directional printing.

Also, the relative position of the two nozzles is shifted by 600 dpi for black and by 1200 dpi for color. Thus, the two nozzles together on a single pass produce 600 dpi resolution for black and 1200 dpi resolution for color.

There is a heater near the nozzle openings and small ink drops are ejected with a strong force.
