20230115348 · 2023-04-13 ·

A print head assembly includes a dynamically shifting circuit board. The circuit board is forced into a rear position toward a cavity for a print ink cartridge and is allowed to move forward away from the cavity for removal of the cartridge, which allows vertical removal and installation rather than requiring angular shifting. The circuit board may be biased in the forward direction away from the cavity and held in place by a plate. The plate is movable between two positions which respectively move the circuit board to the rear position against the bias and allow the circuit boar to move to the forward position via the bias force.
