ABSTRACT:
A wide format printer includes a carrier that is mountable on a support structure of the wide format printer in an operative position with respect to a platen of the wide format printer. A number of printhead chips are positioned on the carrier, the printhead chips together incorporating at least fifty thousand nozzle arrangements. The printhead chips are positioned so that the printhead chips are capable of ejecting ink drops into a printing zone defined by the platen. Control circuitry is also positioned on the carrier and is configured to control operation of the printhead chips.
