Abstract
A printhead assembly includes an elongate printhead mounted along a spine. A conductive film is provided in electrical contact along the printhead. Power and data from a flexible circuit bearer are conveyed to the conductive film, and hence the printhead, by pressing the flexible circuit bearer against the film. The flexible circuit bearer is forced against the film by an angled member arranged to bias the flexible circuit bearer towards the spine thereby pressing the intermediately located flexible circuit bearer into abutment with the conductive film.
