Abstract:
In one example, a printhead assembly module includes an upstream row of printheads and a downstream row of printheads and a flow structure to distribute printing fluids to the printheads. The upstream and downstream rows of printheads are offset from one another such that a printhead in the upstream row extends past the downstream row at one end of the module and a printhead in the downstream row extends past the upstream row at the other end of the module. The flow structure includes a plate, slots in the plate to carry printing fluid to the printheads, and corresponding channels in the plate to distribute printing fluid to the slots. The slots and channels are arranged on the plate such that the arrangement is the same when rotated 180° about an axis of symmetry located at the geometric center of the arrangement.

Claim (Index 15):
The print bar of  claim 14 , where the middle plate has a top and a bottom and passages through which printing fluid may flow from the top to the bottom, the passages in the middle plate including:\n two groups of channels in the top through which the first and second printing fluids, respectively, may flow to slots in the bottom, each group of channels including a first channel connected to exactly one of the slots which is aligned with a corresponding slot in the top of the bottom plate, a second channel connected to exactly two of the slots which are aligned with corresponding slots in the top of the bottom plate, and a third channel connected to exactly three of the slots which are aligned with corresponding slots in the top of the bottom plate; and two groups of ports in the top through which third and fourth printing fluids, respectively, may flow to channels in the bottom, each group of ports including a single first port connected to a first one of the channels which is aligned with the first channel in the top of the bottom plate, a single second port connected to a second one of the channels which is aligned with the second channel in the top of the bottom plate, and a single third port connected to a third one of the channels which is aligned with the third channel in the top of the bottom plate.
