    摘要: An actively-controlled recirculating ink delivery system is provided that incorporates active control of pressures downstream of the printhead. This is achieved through the use of a device (such as a pump, return valve, combination thereof or similar devices) that provides active control of downstream ink pressures. A pressurized ink supply, pressure sensors, an air and heat exchanger are also provided, thereby improving start up, normal operation, purging and shut down procedures. Because the pressurized ink supply is not restricted to sit at a particular vertical distance below the printhead, backpressure may be changed quickly and easily through electronic control, and system priming is considerably quicker than with conventional air-pressurized systems.

    摘要: A system for receiving and recycling ink comprises a print cartridge having a printhead, and an ink supply reservoir fluidly connected to the print cartridge and a seal member coupled to the ink supply reservoir. The seal member defines a fluid path into the reservoir and the print cartridge engages the seal member so that ink spit from the printhead flows through the fluid path into the reservoir.

    摘要: A pressure regulator that sets the pressure of a liquid to a predetermined pressure differential below a reference pressure, such as atmospheric pressure. The pressure regulator comprises a liquid delivery channel and a capillary array. The liquid delivery channel includes a liquid input and a liquid output. The liquid flows through the liquid delivery channel from the liquid input to the liquid output. The capillary array is composed of ones of an elongate capillary. The capillary includes a first end in fluid communication with the liquid delivery channel and a second end in pressure communication with a source of the reference pressure. The liquid flows through the first end into the capillary to form a liquid surface in the capillary. The second end is remote from the first end. The capillary has cross-sectional dimensions in relation to the surface tension of the liquid and the angle of contact between the liquid and the capillary such that the pressure drop across the liquid surface in the capillary is equal to the predetermined pressure differential.
