  • Printing liquid transfer and supply system
    Patent number: 8911067
    Abstract: A printing system for printing on a print media includes a first printhead and a second printhead for printing on the print media. A first liquid supply module including a first liquid reservoir is in fluid communication with the first printhead and provides liquid from the first liquid reservoir to the first printhead. A second liquid supply module including a second liquid reservoir is in fluid communication with the second printhead and provides liquid from the second liquid reservoir to the second printhead. A liquid transfer module transfers liquid between the first liquid reservoir and the second liquid reservoir. A method of transferring liquid in the printing system is also provided.

  • Apparatus and method of controlling access to a service area of an equipment cabinet
    Publication number: 20040017643
    Abstract: A cabinet has an opening and a panel which covers the opening. Electrical equipment is disposed in the cabinet and is operable when high voltage is applied thereto. An interlock mechanism is moveable between a locked position in which the panel covers the opening to prevent access to the electrical equipment and an unlocked position in which the panel can be opened or removed to allow access to the electrical equipment. A residual voltage associated with the electrical equipment when high voltage is removed from the electrical equipment is monitored. The interlock mechanism is moved from the locked position to the unlocked position allow access to the electrical equipment when the residual voltage decreases below a predetermined reference value.
