Abstract
A wide-array inkjet printhead assembly with a shroud includes a backbone, an array of die in which the die are mounted on die carriers. The die carriers are attached to the backbone and include support features. The shroud includes a capping surface, with a surface profile that deviates from a reference plane by more than a target deviation. The support features interface with and support an undersurface of shroud such that the capping surface of the shroud, when biased against the support features, deviates from the reference plane by no more than the target deviation.
