Abstract: Certain examples relate to controlling recirculation processes in a printing apparatus. An example printing material cartridge includes a reservoir storing printing material to supply a printing apparatus; memory; and instructions for controlling a recirculation process in the printing apparatus, the instructions stored in the memory, the recirculation process to cause the printing material to move between the reservoir and a second printing material cartridge, the second printing material cartridge separately replaceable from the printing material cartridge in the printing apparatus.

Abstract: A print liquid supply apparatus comprising a container to hold print liquid and an interface structure to fluidically connect the container to a receiving station wherein the interface structure projects outwards with respect to the container and comprises a liquid interface to fluidically connect to a corresponding fluidic interface of the receiving station and a liquid channel fluidically connecting the container and the liquid interface.

Abstract: A fluid tank comprises a rigid container and a bag to receive a fluid. The bag is arranged within the container and comprises a fluid opening to allow a fluid to flow therethrough. A perimeter of the bag extends in a first direction and in a second direction and is supported within the container, such that the perimeter of the bag is movable in no more than the first direction and the second direction.

Abstract: Certain examples relate to mixing and/or supply cartridges for printing apparatus. One example implementation includes a reservoir to receive printing material from a printing apparatus and to return the received printing material to the printing apparatus. A storage medium stores a reservoir printing material level parameter indicative of the amount of printing material in the reservoir; a recirculation cycle counter indicative of the number of recirculation events experienced by the cartridge; a maximum recirculation cycle parameter indicative of the maximum number of recirculation events that may be experienced by the cartridge.

Abstract: An interface structure connectable to a separate liquid reservoir, to connect that liquid reservoir to a receiving station, comprising a liquid interface to fluidically connect to at least one liquid needle of the receiving station, a liquid channel, to fluidically connect the liquid interface to the reservoir, a support wall supporting an integrated circuit laterally next to the liquid channel, the integrated circuit having contact pad contact surfaces, and a front push area adjacent the liquid, the front push area terminating at a front edge that defines a profile height of the interface structure, between said front edge and an opposite distal edge.

Abstract: Example implementations provide a controller to determine a printing fluid abnormality associated with an ink supply channel of a printer; the controller comprising: an input to receive a signal output by a pressure sensor; the signal being indicative of ink pressure associated with the ink supply channel, and a monitor to determine from a characteristic of the signal the presence of an abnormality in the printing fluid.

In another example a key pen structure is provided. In yet another example an interface structure for receiving a separate key pen is provided.

Abstract: In one embodiment a sub-assembly of components is provided to assemble a print liquid supply container, the set including a reservoir and a support structure to form a print liquid supply container, the container having a first, second and third dimensions, the support structure to at least partially surround and support the reservoir and to provide stiffness to the container, at least in a folded and mounted condition, the reservoir including a bag to hold the print liquid, being at least partially flexible to collapse for print liquid to be withdrawn from the reservoir, the bag being configured to inhibit fluid exchange, and a neck that is relatively narrow with respect to the bag in a filled state, with an opening to output print liquid from the bag.

Abstract: An example printing fluid pressure sensor comprises a first pressurizable chamber having an inlet to receive a pressurized gas and a second chamber to receive a printing fluid. A flexible element is disposed in between the first and second chambers and is to retain a magnet. A first side of the flexible element forms a wall of the first chamber and a second side of the flexible element forms a of the second chamber to seal the first and second chambers. The example sensor further comprises a sensor to detect the position of a magnet relative to the sensor. The sensor is disposed outside of the first and second chambers.
