Abstract
A printhead includes a printhead module and frame, and an alignment assembly including a base plate, locator plate, first set of locating elements, and coupling member. The locator plate, including through holes, is affixed with the base plate such that pockets are formed having a wall corresponding to a wall of one of the through holes and a base corresponding to a surface of the base plate. The first set of locating elements is positioned with an interference fit in one of the pockets. The walls of the pockets define positions of the first set of locating elements in a plane of the locator plate surface. The bases of the pockets define positions of the first set of locating elements in a direction normal to the base plate surface. The coupling member includes a second set of locating elements that contact the first set of locating elements.
