This is an appeal from the decision of the examiner
finally rejecting claims 1-5, 10 and 11, which constitute all
of the claims remaining of record in the application. 2
The appellants’ invention is directed to a method of
manufacturing a print head for use with an ink jet printer.
The claims on appeal have been reproduced in an appendix to the
Brief.

The references relied upon by the examiner to support the
final rejection are:

(filed Jun. 12,
1995)
The admitted prior art as described on pages 1-4 and in Figures
11-13 of the appellants’ specification.
THE REJECTION
Claims 1-5, 10 and 11 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103
as being unpatentable over the admitted prior art in view of

nevertheless was not removed from the final rejection.
