Abstract
The present specification describes a manifold for a fluid ejection system. The manifold includes a rotational connector on a first side surface, a plurality of pen interconnects on a bottom surface of the manifold, and a sliding surface on a top surface of the manifold. The sliding surface is to accommodate a fluidic interface. Sliding the fluidic interface along the sliding surface extends needles from the fluidic interface through the plurality of pen interconnects into a plurality of pens.
