Systems and methods may include technology that provides for printing fluid delivery and/or dispersion. In an example, such technology includes a diffuser, an infuser, and a mixer. The diffuser disperses dry particles in a pressurized air flow to generate a dry particle-air flow mixture having particles in a first size distribution. The dry particles include a plurality of chargeable pigment particles. The infuser disperses the dry particle-air flow mixture in a carrier liquid contained within a tank to form a printing fluid. The infuser disperses the dry particle-air flow mixture in the carrier liquid at a rate sufficient to generate turbulence that reduces the particles to a second size distribution. The mixer mixes the printing fluid at a second rate sufficient to reduce the particles in the printing fluid to a third size distribution that satisfies a predefined specification of the printing system.
