Abstract
A printhead adjustment apparatus for adjusting the translation and rotation of a printhead is provided. The apparatus comprises a first portion and a second portion, each arranged for coupling to the printhead. The apparatus also comprises a first actuator coupled to the first portion by a first flexure arrangement and a second actuator coupled to the second portion by a second flexure arrangement. Translation of the first and second actuators in the same direction as each other causes translation of the first and second portions in the same direction as each other to provide translation of the printhead, while translation of the first and second actuators in opposite directions to each other causes translation of the first and second portions in opposite directions to each other to provide rotation of the printhead.
