Abstract

A printhead carrier includes a body having spaced apart bearings by means of which the body is supported at a predetermined position in the printer adapted to position a printhead on the printhead carrier at a placement relative to a path of a sheet of print media through a print zone in the printer, and a height-adjustable mechanism associated with one of the bearings that is continuously adjustable to effect a continuous increase or decrease of the height of the one bearing relative to the body to thereby set the printhead at a proper angle relative to the sheet of print media.
