  • Publication number: 20170096014
    Abstract: Disclosed is a priming system for inkjet printheads that includes at least one inkjet printhead. Each inkjet printhead includes one or more single color inkjet chips. Further, the priming system includes at least one ink supply unit. Each ink supply unit is fluidly coupled to a corresponding single color inkjet chip for supplying ink to the corresponding single color inkjet chip. Furthermore, the priming system includes a pumping member that includes at least one pumping head. A pumping head is fluidly coupled to the corresponding single color inkjet chip to receive the ink from the corresponding single color inkjet chip, and to a corresponding ink supply unit to pump the ink back into the corresponding ink supply unit.

  • Publication number: 20100033530
    Abstract: A priming system for priming a print head of a printing device includes an elongated hollow member, a piston mechanism, a piston driving mechanism, and a suction cup. The piston mechanism disposed in the elongated hollow member is capable of reciprocally moving in a first direction and in a second direction opposite to the first direction within the elongated hollow member. The piston driving mechanism is operatively connected to the piston mechanism at an end portion of the elongated hollow member. The piston driving mechanism is capable of reciprocally moving the piston mechanism in the first direction and in the second direction. The suction cup is disposed above the print head and operatively coupled to the elongated hollow member. The suction cup is capable of extracting ink from a plurality of nozzles of the print head, when the piston mechanism moves in the first direction.
