Abstract

See full text

A printhead assembly is provided comprising at least one printhead module comprising at least two printhead integrated circuits, each of which has nozzles formed therein for delivering printing fluid onto the surface of print media, a support member supporting the printhead integrated circuits and carrying the printing fluid, and an electrical connector for connecting electrical signals to the printhead integrated circuits. The assembly further comprises drive electronics incorporating at least two controllers arranged on printed circuit boards (PCBs) to control the printing operation of at least one printhead integrated circuit via the electrical connector, a casing supporting the printhead module and at least two mounting elements supporting the PCBs and abutting along the casing's longitudinal direction. An electrical connecting member is arranged between the abutting mounting elements so as to position conductive strips thereof to overlay a series of spaced connection strips at the edge regions of the PCBs.
