An ink jet print head assembly (10) includes at least one elongate ink jet print head chip (20) that is the product of an integrated circuit fabricatio n technique. The assembly (10) also includes at least one corresponding ink je t print head chip carrier (14) that defines an elongate recess (18) having a pair of opposed side walls (28). The, or each, print head chip (20) is received in one respective recess (18). The, or each, ink jet print head chi p (20) and said respective recess (18) are dimensioned so that a gap (26) is defined between the, or each, ink jet print head chip (20) and each side wal l (28). Resiliently deformable material (22) is positioned in each gap to reta in the, or each, print head chip (20) in position in said respective recess (18 ). |
