The ink jet cartridge (20) includes a housing (22), a printhead mounted on the housing, datum surfaces on the housing (22) for registering a position of the housing in a fixed, repeatable position in a first carriage structure, and a cartridge set of electrical contacts mounted to the cartridge housing and electrically coupled to the printhead. The cartridge set of electrical contacts is positioned on the housing (22) for electrical contact with a corresponding first carriage set of electrical contacts when the cartridge is mounted in the first carriage structure. The adapter structure is mounted to the cartridge housing to provide an assembly of the adapted structure and the cartridge, the assembly adapted for mounting in a second carriage structure configured to receive an ink jet cartridge of a different size in a fixed, repeatable position. The second carriage structure has a second carriage set of electrical contacts.</p> |
