This invention relates to a cover assembly for a cradle unit of a
pagewidth print engine. The cover assembly defines a docking port for a
refill unit configured to refill a cartridge unit of the print engine.
The cartridge unit is housed in the cradle. The docking port includes a
rim portion, engagement means and a push rod. The rim portion is for
receiving a base portion of the refill unit so that the refill unit is
able to pass through the cover assembly, in use, to dock with the
cartridge unit. The engagement means is located within the rim portion,
the engagement means being configured to engage the refill unit to retain
the refill unit securely in position to facilitate refilling of the
cartridge unit. The push rod extends through a hole in the rim portion
for operatively actuating the refill unit to incrementally dispense ink.
