An ink jet print head assembly includes a carrier body, plural pistons, and a printing plate. The carrier body has an ejection side configured to face an object to be printed upon. The pistons are coupled with the carrier body. The printing plate is coupled with the ejection side of the carrier body and includes a diaphragm plate. The printing plate is configured to hold a fluid to be printed on the object on a side of the diaphragm plate that is opposite of the pistons. The printing plate includes orifices through which the fluid is ejected from the printing plate and onto the object being printed upon. The pistons are configured to actuate in ejection directions in order to engage the diaphragm plate and cause the fluid to be ejected from the orifices of the printing plate along printing directions. The ejection directions in which the pistons are actuated are transversely oriented with respect to the printing directions in which the fluid is ejected from the printing plate.
