Abstract:
1. A mounting arrangement for mounting a printer component operable to print one or more swaths of print to a substantially rigid base component which forms part of a printer, said mounting arrangement comprising: said printer component operable to print one or more swaths of print; a foil member, which is either attached to said printer component, or adapted to be attached to the base component, said foil member including one or more mounting apertures; and one or more mounting pins, which are: attached to the printer component, where said foil member is adapted to be attached to the base component; or adapted to be attached to the base component, where said foil member is attached to said printer component, said mounting pins being adapted to engage said mounting apertures, wherein engagement of said mounting pins with said mounting apertures causes local deformation of said foil member, said local deformation providing a locating force on said mounting pins so as to urge said printer component into alignment with said foil member, and thereby said base component, in a plane substantially parallel to said foil member.
