Abstract
Technology is science’s application in the “real” world. The reality of technology is that sometimes it doesn’t quite do what it was expected, or hoped, to do. The users of a technology do not need to understand all of the science that went into the making of that technology; however, it can be useful to have a frame of reference for what to do when it doesn’t work. This chapter will introduce, through history, the scientific principles that influence the movement of dye as “ink,” propelled by a jet, to print on a textile, as ink jet printing. The history of the scientific discoveries that lead to the development of ink jet printing reflect the development of science itself.
