Abstract
A print head module () for depositing a substance has an axis and a plurality of print heads () provided with nozzles (). The heads are distributed along the axis to form an elongate compound head having nozzle redundancy by arranging the heads in partially overlapping relation to one another. This allows deposition of the substance from the nozzles in uniform swathes having different angles transverse to the axis.
