Japanese Mall Fountain (spells words!)

Think "Inkjet printer" technology, only controlling fountain nozzles instead of ink jets.

@pabobfin Not sure, because water is much heavier than small ink particles .Sometimes things are done in such clever way and nothing like I'd imagine.The fountain is impressive to me anyway and wondering can be more fun than knowing

[appapo3]

I am not sure how it is done I imagine their are several guns that shoot out water drops that have a charge and they pass by a plate voltage pulling up the individual drops in a dot matrix format. much like the date and bar code machines that mark bottle caps. or there is a roll of perforated material that the water shoots through  or a lot of different ways. I'd love to know the answer
