Abstract
An apparatus and method allows for mounting and aligning of the charge plate/catcher assembly and the droplet generator within the structure that holds these two parts. Three degrees of freedom of adjustment are incorporated into the frame and are self-locking. Two of the degrees of freedom are the positioning distance of a jet array to charge leads and the parallelism of the jet array to the charge leads. The third degree of freedom is the ability to adjust the jet array so as to align and center the jets in front of the charge leads.
