A wide format printer having a web path adapted for high speed printing is provided. The printer comprises a printhead assembly, the printhead assembly comprising a printhead mounted at the base of a printhead carrier, and a feed mechanism for continuously feeding a web of print media past the printhead. The printhead assembly is positioned in the path of the web such that, in use, the web is tensioned around the printhead assembly. This arrangement is advantageous for achieving high speed pagewidth printing, whilst controlling the distance between the printhead and the web using surface features on the printhead assembly.
