A method of forming a low-stiction nozzle plate for an inkjet printhead, said nozzle plate having a plurality of nozzle apertures defined therein, each nozzle aperture having a respective nozzle rim, said method comprising the steps of: (a) providing a partially-fabricated printhead comprising a plurality of inkjet nozzle assemblies sealed with roof material; (b) etching partially into said roof material to define simultaneously said nozzle rims and a plurality of stiction-reducing formations; and (c) etching through said roof material to define said nozzle apertures, thereby forming said nozzle plate.
