In one example, a molded printhead includes a printhead die embedded in a molding and an external electrical contact electrically connected to the printhead die and exposed outside the molding to connect to circuitry external to the printhead. The molding has a channel therein through which fluid may pass to the back part of the die. The front part of the die is exposed outside the molding and the back part of the die is covered by the molding except at the channel and the thickness of the molding varies from a lesser thickness around the die to a greater thickness away from the die.
