Abstract

In an example implementation, a grounding structure includes a perimeter ground line around the perimeter of a printhead die, and having north, south, east, and west segments. The structure includes an inter-slot ground line extending from the north segment to the south segment between two fluid slots, and an alternative ground line extending from the east segment to the west segment and intersecting the inter-slot ground line in a connection area near ends of the fluid slots.
