Summary:A jetting module for installation in a printhead of a printer is provided. The printhead includes a set of mounting features, a set of fluid and electrical connections, and at least a portion of a drop deflection mechanism. The jetting module includes a nozzle plate, a set of mounting features, and a set of fluid and electrical connections. The set of mounting features of the jetting module is configured to engage the set of mounting features of the printhead. The set of fluid and electrical connections of the jetting module corresponds to the set of fluid and electrical connections of the printhead. The set of fluid and electrical connections of the jetting module are located relative to the set of mounting features of the jetting module such that a force applied to couple the set of fluid and electrical connections of the jetting module and the set of fluid and electrical connections of the printhead provides force to maintain contact between the set of mounting features of the jetting module and the set of mounting features of the printhead.
