ABSTRACT:
A connector for enabling a user to selectively couple one of at least a first printhead having a connection member or a second printhead having a set of connection members to a circuit. The circuit comprises first contact means for connecting the first printhead to the circuit and second contact means for connecting the second printhead to the circuit. The connector comprises a body having a first slot for receiving the connection member. The body further comprises a second slot and a third slot for receiving the set of connection members. A first plurality of male conductors is associated with the first slot in order to couple the first printhead to the first contact means of the circuit when the connection member is inserted into the first slot. A second plurality of male conductors is associated with the second and third slots in order to couple the second printhead to the second contact means of the circuit when the set of connection members are inserted into the second and third slots, respectively.
