Abstract

A method of making an inkjet print cartridge comprises forming a cartridge body (30) and applying directly to the surface of the body first and second sets of electrical terminals (40a, 42a) selectively connected by conductive tracks (44). A printhead (68) is mounted to the body (30) in electrical connection with the first set of terminals (40a). The second set of terminals (42a) is adapted for electrical connection to printer circuitry. The electrical terminals and conductive tracks may be located in corresponding recesses in the cartridge body, being deposited therein by squeegee or inkjet printing.
