The surface tension is a constant of the fluid. The force required to
form a droplet is independant of nozzle diameter. Therefore, the Pascals
required to form the same surface deflection is proportional to 1/area
or 1/diameter^2. Increasing the peristaltic pump hose diameter will make
no difference whatsoever. The vacuum pump is only for taking away the
fluid and forcing it into that fat dunny-roll inside the printer.
