摘要:
An inkjet printhead assembly includes at least one inkjet printhead including N primitives and an address having M possible address values. Each primitive includes a group of at most M drop generators. The address is cycled through all M address values to control a sequence of which one drop generator in the primitive is fired at a given time. One drop generator in the primitive can be fired simultaneously with one drop generator in each of the other primitives. A primitive to address ratio (N/M) of the printhead is at least 10 to 1.

Disclosed is a print cartridge for an inkjet printer includes a flexible circuit having a nozzle member formed therein, the nozzle member including a plurality of ink orifices and the flexible circuit having window openings therein. The window openings expose electrical leads on the flexible circuit. A substrate containing a plurality of heating elements and associated ink ejection chambers, and having electrodes to which the electrical leads are bonded, is mounted on the back surface of the nozzle member. Each heating element is located proximate to an associated ink orifice. The back surface of the nozzle member extending over two or more outer edges of the substrate. A print cartridge body having a headland portion located proximate to the back surface of the nozzle member and including an inner raised wall circumscribing the substrate. The inner raised wall having an adhesive support surface formed thereon and having wall openings therein. The wall openings having an adhesive support surface. An adhesive layer is located between the back surface of the nozzle member and the inner raised wall and wall openings therein to affix the nozzle member to the headland and form an adhesive ink seal. The adhesive layer is located on the adhesive support surface of the inner raised wall and along the adhesive support surface within the wall openings therein and within the window openings so as to encapsulate the electrical leads bonded to the substrate electrodes.

A fluid ejection device includes a fluid chamber, a fluid restriction communicated with the fluid chamber, and a fluid channel communicated with the fluid restriction. The fluid restriction has a fluid restriction parameter defined as (2*W+2*H)*L/(H*W), wherein W is a width of the fluid restriction, H is a height of the fluid restriction, and L is a length of the fluid restriction. As such, the fluid restriction parameter is in a range of 1.5 to 5.75.
