(54) Adjustable mount printhead assembly


(57) In the field of an ink jet printer with multiple printheads, it can be necessary to precisely position nozzles relative to a substrate, where the nozzles are included in the printheads. It can be difficult to achieve a precision printing, unless the nozzles are precisely aligned relative to one another, if multiple printheads are used to print contemporaneously. A mounting assembly for a printhead assembly includes one or more active direction mounts, which can control the position of the printhead in one or more directions. It can allow dynamic nozzle and drop placement adjustment in one or more directions.
