Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a bracket for mounting a fluid ejection module to a frame, and to provide a method for aligning the bracket.SOLUTION: A bracket includes a support strut to carry a fluid ejection module and an alignment strut coupled to the support strut. The alignment strut is affixed to a frame 142 so as to orient the support strut with respect to the frame in each of three orthogonal linear directions and three orthogonal angular directions. The alignment strut includes three alignment mechanisms. Each of the first and second alignment shapes of the first and second alignment mechanisms is held mechanically fixed on the alignment strut in respective aligned positions, and the third alignment mechanism is movable on the alignment strut.
