Increased droplet placement accuracy in inkjet printing

An inkjet print head comprising:

• at least one nozzle chamber, having a nozzle aperture defined in one wall thereof for the ejection of printing fluid out of said aperture, a printing fluid supply channel interconnected with said nozzle chamber;
• and a printing fluid droplet tail release guide arrangement having disposed on a predetermined position of an edge of a circumference of said aperture, wherein said printing fluid droplet tail release guide arrangement comprises a pointed structure of essentially pyramidal shape a base of which rests on an inner surface wall of said nozzle chamber and a pointed tip of which protrudes towards the center of said aperture.
