Abstract
A CIJ printer has a drop generator and a mount. The mounting of the drop generator on the mount is by a pair of fixing screws locating in countersunk screw-threaded bores in the drop generator and disposed in the resilient bushings located in corresponding bores in the mount. To reduce the transfer of ultrasonic vibrations and mounting stresses imposed on the drop generator, two pairs of point contacts protrude between the mount and the drop generator. Each pair being in alignment with the centre of a respective one of the fixing screws and on respective lines perpendicular to a line connecting the centers of the fixing screws.
