摘要: An example print component includes a container interface with a guide feature to guide rotation and a rotationally asymmetric key feature. An example toner component includes a recess to receive a toner container, a guide feature to guide rotation of the toner container, and an asymmetric key feature embedded in the guide feature to guide a container material interface towards a component material interface upon rotation. An example container may have a periphery with a rotationally asymmetric surface plane to guide rotation of the container and a protrusion extending from the periphery that has a key feature defined by edges rotationally asymmetric with respect to the periphery. An example container may include a mechanical interface including an asymmetrically-located key feature that, upon rotation of the print material container, generates a sealing force substantially perpendicular to the direction of rotation.

摘要: A device may include a dispensable substance container to hold a dispensable substance; a dispensing nozzle attached to the dispensable substance container to dispense the dispensable substance out of an opening in the dispensing nozzle; and a frangible obstruction encompassing the dispensing nozzle and obstructing the opening of the dispensing nozzle wherein the frangible obstruction is to slide along the dispensing nozzle to uncover the opening when broken free from the dispensing nozzle by a wall of a receiving container during an engagement between the dispensable substance container and the receiving container.

摘要: An example device capable of predicting print substance end-of-life (EOL) comprises a container to hold a print substance, the container comprising a refill port through which print substance is to be introduced into the container. The example device also comprises a processor to receive signals indicative of an amount of print substance introduced via the refill port. The processor is also to predict a print substance end-of-life (EOL) based on the amount of print substance introduced.

摘要: In an example, a print component includes a guide structure. The example guide structure includes a recess to receive a print material container and a guideway with a guide wall to support rotation of the print material container. Upon rotation of the print material container, an electrical contact of the print material container moves towards an electrical contact coupled to the guide structure of the print component. In another example, a container includes a housing, a material transfer interface, and a mechanical interface. In that example, the mechanical interface includes a guide structure that defines a protrusion and a guideway to allow the container to rotate within a recess defined by a receptacle shell. Upon rotation of the container, an electrical contact coupled to the guide structure moves towards an electrical contact on the receptacle shell.

摘要: Example implementations relate to an apparatus to transfer a quantity of print material to a printing device through a transfer mechanism. In some examples, the apparatus includes a container including the quantity of print material, a transfer mechanism associated with the container, and a sensor associated with the transfer mechanism. In some examples, the sensor is to communicate to the printing device information about the transfer of the quantity of print material through the dispenser mechanism.
