A B S T R A C T The invention is embodied in a system which includes a color video camera, a color monitor, a central processing unit, and a printer. The printer includes a specially designed printhead assembly. The printhead assembly includes three independent cartridge support stations, and an optical reader support station. Each of the cartridge support stations is designed to accept a thermal ink jet cartridge. The cartridges are held by a cartridge frame which is designed to maintain close tolerance in the relative positions of the cartridges. The printhead assembly rides along a rail parallel to substrate support rollers. An optical reader is used to read a U.P.C. label which has image size and position information built into the U.P.C. code. While the system is specifically designed to be used in printing images on a Mylar? balloon, the system may be used to deposit a wide variety of liquids with a high degree of precision and repeatability. In the particular application shown, the cartridges each contain one of the primary colors of yellow, magenta and cyan so that the system can be used to produce processed color images.
