Floor wax is water based and further, quickly builds up a film inside the print head that clogs it up. Most Piezo print heads are not compatible with water or substances that conduct. I'll bet if you get your hands on the spec sheet for inks used in Piezo head printers, the ink when in liquid form is non-conductive and does not build up inside the print head. Another alternative piezo style printers are use wax that is melted and then deposited onto paper. Examples of this printer include the Tektronix Phazer series of printers.
