The printing device including an outer housing, a substrate having a front surface on which is formed ink ejection chambers and having a back surface, an ink conduit having a distal end proximate to the back surface of the substrate, the ink conduit, the outer housing and the substrate defining an ink flow path to the ink ejection chambers and a bubble accumulation chamber in communication with the ink flow path such that bouyancy will tend to move bubbles that accumulate in the ink flow path into the bubble accumulation chamber.
