Abstract:
An example system includes an ink tank including a feeder tank, wherein the feeder tank is to hold a fluid therein, the feeder tank having a port, the feeder tank being under a negative gauge pressure. The example system further includes a print cartridge in fluid communication with the port of the feeder tank, the print cartridge having a nozzle plate. The port of the feeder tank is positioned to a lower corner of the feeder tank distally to the print cartridge, wherein the nozzle plate is disposed above a predetermined level within the feeder tank when the system is not tilted, the predetermined level corresponding to a free surface of a predetermined volume of the fluid when the system is not tilted. When the system is tilted to position the nozzle plate below the port, the volume of fluid uncovers the port.
