    摘要: An inkjet printhead includes: a manifold having an ink supply channel and a lower surface with a longitudinal ink cavity defined therein; a shim attached to the lower surface so as to bridge across the longitudinal ink cavity, the shim having a plurality of shim apertures for receiving ink from the longitudinal ink cavity; and a plurality of printhead chips attached to the shim. A plurality of through-holes are defined in the manifold to provide fluid communication between the ink supply channel and the longitudinal ink cavity. Each through-hole has a first portion with a first end defined in the roof and a second portion extending through a sidewall of the ink cavity such that the shim seals an end of the second portion.

    摘要: An inkjet printhead includes: a manifold having first, second, third and fourth ink supply channels extending along the manifold and corresponding first, second, third and fourth rows of outlets defined in the manifold, wherein a first ink delivery group contains the first and second rows of outlets and a second ink delivery group contains the third and fourth rows of outlets. A first row of printhead chips is mounted to a lower surface of the manifold and a second row of printhead chips is mounted to the lower surface of the manifold. Each row of printhead chips prints two ink colors to provide a four-color printhead.

    摘要: An inkjet printhead includes: a manifold having a plurality of ink outlets defined in a manifold surface; a plurality of printhead chips mounted to the manifold surface and aligned with the ink outlets; a PCB mounted to the manifold surface and offset from the ink outlets, the PCB being electrically connected to the printhead chips; and a shield plate covering the PCB. The shield plate has one face in thermal contact with the PCB and an exposed opposite face defining a lower surface of the printhead.

    摘要: An inkjet printhead includes: a rigid elongate manifold having ink supply channels extending along its length and a plurality of ink outlets defined therein; a shim attached to the manifold, the shim having a plurality of shim apertures for receiving ink from the ink outlets; and a plurality of printhead chips adhesively bonded directly to the shim, each printhead chip receiving ink from one or more of the ink outlets. The the shim is formed of a metal alloy having a CTE of 5 ppm/° C. or less.
