ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a printer assembly for a pagewidth printer. The printer includes a casing that defines a print media path. Two pagewidth printheads are mounted on opposite sides of a print media path defined by a gap in said casing. Capping members are located adjacent respective printheads. Each capping member is inclined at a predetermined angle to a direction of travel of print media through said path. An actuating mechanism is configured to turn the printheads in an arcuate manner relative to the media path to the predetermined angle, and to move each capping member rectilinearly towards the respective printhead to cap nozzle arrangements located on a printing zone of such a printhead.
