Abstract: A method implemented in an imaging device senses the remaining life of a drum maintenance system in the imaging device. The method includes detecting a buoyant member, which is pivotably coupled to a proboscis extending from an end cap of a reservoir in a reservoir of the DMU, reaching a predetermined position in the reservoir and then updating an estimate of the remaining release agent in the reservoir with reference to a total media area and total inked area.

Abstract translation: 在成像装置中实现的方法感测成像装置中的滚筒维护系统的剩余寿命。 该方法包括检测浮力构件，该浮力构件可枢转地联接到从DMU的储存器中的储存器的端盖延伸的长鼻，到达储存器中的预定位置，然后更新储存器中剩余的脱模剂的估计 参考总媒体面积和总墨水面积。
