    When a dot of ink hits paper it soaks in a little. This holds the
ink in place and helps it dry quicker. The dot of ink also spreads out
a little as it soaks in and dries. The drops of ink hook together
forming better coverage.
    Printing onto a metal surface might require smaller dots but denser
coverage. You are very close if the ink is drying? Is it?
