Abstract

A packaged fluidic ejection cartridge assembly is disclosed. The cartridge assembly includes a cartridge for fluidic ejection, a cartridge storage container, and a cartridge retainer rotatably attached to the container so as to rotate about a pivot axis. The cartridge retainer receives and secures the cartridge within the storage cup. A moisture barrier film is sealed over the storage cup. The storage container may be stored with the pivot axis in either a substantially horizontal position or a substantially vertical position. The center of mass of the cartridge retainer and the cartridge within the retainer are offset from the pivot axis so that the center of mass rotates to a position below the pivot axis when the packaged cartridge assembly is stored with the pivot axis in a substantially horizontal position.
