METHOD OF MANUFACTURING A FOUR COLOR MODULAR PRINTHEAD

摘要

A method of manufacturing a printhead assembly (10) includes selecting a micromolding sub-assembly (24), the sub-assembly (24) comprising a printhead chip (18), a flexible printed circuit board (PCB, 54) and a micromolding (26). The micromolding sub-assembly (24) is attached to a cover molding (28) to form a print module (12). An ink reservoir sub-assembly (16) is formed and a plurality of the printhead modules (12) are attached to the ink reservoir sub-assembly (16) in end-to-end relationship. Ink is charged into the reservoir sub-assembly (16) and the completed assembly is tested.
