Abstract
Ink jet printing apparatus, for cooperative printing along a common linear print zone with a plurality of disposable print/cartridges having linear orifice arrays, utilizes a carriage which traverses adjacent and parallel to the print zone and includes positioning structure for insertably receiving and releasably constraining a plurality of print/cartridges in transversely spaced relation with the line of their orifice arrays precisely perpendicular to the direction of carriage traverse and vertically indexed to the direction of carriage traverse. The printer has a detector for sensing and storing the relative-transverse locations of the orifice arrays of the positioned print/cartridges. A printing controller regulates actuation of each positioned print/cartridge in accordance with its detected relative-transverse location to achieve proper horizontal drop placements.
