The print bar carriage includes: a chassis; a printhead supported by the chassis; and a pair of lugs, each lug being slidably received in a respective referencing slot of the housing. Each stop has a datum surface which defines a printing position of the print bar carriage, the print bar carriage being in the printing position when each lug is in abutting engagement with a respective datum surface.
