Abstract:
1. A printing assembly comprising: at least one control tank to hold a volume of fluid and rotationally positionable into a vertical orientation; and a plurality of printhead assemblies with each printhead assembly being separate from, and independent of, the at least one control tank, with each printhead assembly in fluid communication with the at least one control tank, wherein each printhead assembly is selectively rotatable into a plurality of different rotated positions relative to the vertical orientation to cause a droplet firing path of each respective printhead assembly in each of the different rotated positions to be aligned perpendicular to an imaging substrate on a rotary drum, wherein the plurality of printhead assemblies are arranged in series extending about at least a portion of a periphery of the rotary drum such that at least some of the respective printhead assemblies are aligned in a respective one of the rotated positions, relative to the vertical orientation of the at least one control tank, that is different than the rotated position of other respective printhead assemblies.
