Abstract

A fluid interconnect for a component of a printer is disclosed. The component may, for example, be an inkjet printhead removably attached to a printer and having an ink inlet configured to receive ink from an ink supply. The fluid interconnect has a sealing surface configured to form a seal when contacted against a opposing sealing surface on another component of a printer ink delivery system, and carries a surfactant sealant.
