Abstract: A multi-color ink tank includes certain features that properly interface with features on a printhead and carrier support structure to operatively seat the ink tank in the carrier support structure in a sealed flow communicative relationship with the printhead. These interface features are spaced apart relative to one another at distances (or dimensions) that ensure the desired seating and sealing of the ink tank in the carrier support structure and thereby the reliable supply of ink for operation of the inkjet printing system.

Abstract: A mono ink tank includes certain features that properly interface with features on a printhead to operatively seat the ink tank in the printhead in a sealed flow communicative relationship with the printhead. These interface features are spaced apart relative to one another at distances (or dimensions) that ensure the desired seating and sealing of the ink tank in the printhead and thereby the reliable supply of ink for operation of the inkjet printing system.

Abstract: A individual ink tank includes certain features that properly interface with features on a printhead to operatively seat the ink tank in the printhead in a sealed flow communicative relationship with the printhead. These interface features are spaced apart relative to one another at distances (or dimensions) that ensure the desired seating and sealing of the ink tank in the printhead and thereby the reliable supply of ink for operation of the inkjet printing system.

Abstract: A method for securely identifying whether an end user owns a particular device from a manufacturer and is a valid participant in a promotion with a partner of the manufacturer. The method allows an end user to verify ownership of a particular device via a computer network and securely obtain promotion related information which enables the end user to participate in a given sales promotion with a retail partner of the manufacturer of the device.

Abstract: An image forming device including an electronic filing cabinet is provided. The electronic filing cabinet stores documents output from the image forming device or read into the image forming device. The electronic filing cabinet may include an optical character recognition unit, an indexing engine and a storage device. The optical character recognition unit scans or otherwise inspects the documents and generates timestamps for the documents. The scanned information is provided to the indexing engine. The indexing engine classifies and indexes the documents according to a first predefined set of rules. Thereafter, the indexed documents are stored in the storage device. A human machine interface is provided for updating the first predefined set of rules. Previously stored documents may also be retrieved through the human machine interface.

Abstract: Embodiments of an ink tank are provided, which comprise an ink tank housing, at least one air vent disposed on the housing, and at least one RFID tag disposed on the housing, wherein the at lest one RFID tag is operable to communicate with an RFID reader. The ink tank further comprises a sealing component operable to close the air vent. The sealing component has conductivity operable to interfere with the communication of the RFID tag and the RFID reader such that the RFID tag is incapable of communicating with the RFID reader when the vent is closed.

Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for compensating for changes in delivery pressure and protection of a printhead against increased ink flow resistance caused by air trapped in the felt or foam are described. In an exemplary embodiment, ink ejection flow rates are adjusted to keep delivery pressures safely at or below the maximum sustainable delivery pressure required to protect a micro-fluid ejection device of a printhead assembly.

Abstract: A supply cartridge for containing a supply of imaging substance includes a cartridge body, and a light pipe attached to the cartridge body. The light pipe has a light output, and a light input for receiving light from an external light source.
