Abstract

A method of engaging a supply module with a printhead includes the steps of: moving an actuator handle in a first motion along a first axis, thereby linearly sliding the supply module along the first axis towards the printhead and engaging ink couplings of the supply module with complementary ink ports of the printhead; and moving the actuator handle in a separate second motion along a second axis perpendicular to the first axis, thereby moving a PCB of the supply module towards the printhead and engaging PCB contacts with complementary printhead contacts.
