PRINTHEAD ASSEMBLY HAVING A PLURALITY OF MODULAR PRINTHEAD TILES

摘要

A printhead assembly includes a support. A plurality of modular printhead tiles is arranged on the support and the support has a retaining mechanism to retain the modular tiles in position. A plurality of elongate printhead integrated circuits is arranged on respective tiles. Each printhead integrated circuit has a plurality of micro-electromechanical nozzle arrangements for printing on a print medium. A flexible printed circuit board (PCB) provides the printhead integrated circuits with electrical energy.
