An eyelid positioning technique is provided for an ink jet printer to precisely position the eyelid relative to the catcher to properly seal the print head. The eyelid seals against the catcher to contain ink within the printhead on startup and shutdown of the printer system. An eyelid actuator assembly moves the eyelid into a sealed position for startup and shutdown and into an open position for print, so that ink jets can exit an array of orifices and pass between the catcher and the eyelid to print on a print media. At least one alignment flexure capability allows for precise positioning of the eyelid relative to the catcher or the drop generator during assembly of the printer system.
