FLUID DEPOSITION DEVICE

摘要

A fluid deposition device (100) including a platen (102) and a cartridge mount assembly (104) is described. The platen (102) is configured to support a substrate upon which a fluid will be deposited. The cartridge mount assembly (104) includes a receptacle (122) configured to receive a print cartridge (114) and multiple electrical contacts (124) configured to mate with corresponding electrical contacts on the print cartridge (114). In one implementation, the cartridge mount assembly (104) further includes a vacuum connector (131) configured to mate with a vacuum inlet included on the print cartridge (114). When the print cartridge is received in the receptacle, the print cartridge can form connections with the electrical contacts and with the vacuum connector (113) of the receptacle at substantially the same time.
