    Abstract: In one example in accordance with the present disclosure, at least one print liquid supply interconnect is described. Each interconnect includes at least one needle to be inserted into a print liquid supply to allow print liquid to move between the print liquid supply and an ejection device. Each interconnect also includes two keyed slots disposed on either side of a first needle to gate insertion of print liquid supplies to a print liquid supply with protrusions that match the two keyed slots. A guide feature of each interconnect us adjacent the first needle and extends between a first keyed slot and the first needle. An electrical interface of each interconnect establishes a data transmission path between the print liquid supply and the ejection device, the electrical interface disposed between the first needle and a second keyed slot.

    Abstract: Example implementations relate to the automatic ordering of laundry supplies. For example, an appliance may include a fluid detection sensor to detect an amount of laundry supplies present within the appliance, where the fluid detection sensor is to detect a first level of fluid in a first container in the appliance. The appliance may also include a processor coupled to the fluid detection sensor, where the processor is to compare the first level of the fluid to a predetermined threshold level and automatically send a request to order a new container when the first level of the fluid in the first container reaches the predetermined threshold level and where the request is sent over a network.

    Abstract: A printable liquid supply cartridge comprises a housing enclosing an internal volume. The housing has a front end to connect to a printer and first and second sides extending from the front end to a rear end. The front end has a printable liquid outlet closer to the bottom than to the top and has a gas inlet above the printable liquid outlet, each of the printable liquid outlet and the gas inlet to facilitate insertion of a respective fluid pen therein. There is a recess in the front end above the gas inlet, the recess being delimited by a first wall having an internal side and an external side that is part of the first side. An I2C data interface comprising at least three electrical connection pads are exposed on the internal side of the first wall facing towards the recess, the connection pads arranged in a top to bottom direction.

    Abstract: In one example, a system with a fluid level detector includes a fluid actuator assembly with a fluid chamber and a fluid container (40) with a fluid reservoir (44) coupled to the fluid chamber (22). A pressure regulation bag (42) is disposed within the fluid reservoir (44) along with a fluid level sensor (60) to provide an estimate of a fluid level in the fluid reservoir. The fluid level sensor (60) is disposed such that when the fluid reservoir (44) contains fluid, the fluid is not detected in contact with a top of the fluid level sensor once the pressure regulation bag is at a regulation point. When the pressure regulation bag (42) is maximally inflated to fill the fluid chamber (22) with the fluid, the estimate of the fluid level represents a measurement of an amount of fluid in the fluid reservoir (44) once the pressure regulation bag returns to the regulation point.

    Abstract: Examples of a container assembly are disclosed herein. An example of the container assembly includes a first body to supply printing composition and a second body to store reserve printing composition. The example of the container assembly additionally includes an interconnect having a storage position to fluidically isolate the first body from the second body and a use position to fluidically connect the first body to the second body to allow the reserve printing composition to flow from the second body to the first body as needed to replenish the printing composition in the first body and to allow air in the first body displaced by the reserve printing composition to flow from the first body to the second body.

    Abstract: In one example, a fluid cartridge includes a reservoir for holding a fluid, an electrical interface, an alignment feature, and a keying feature. The alignment feature is configured to, as the cartridge is inserted into a receiver, bias the electrical interface against a corresponding electrical interface on the receiver. The keying feature discriminates the cartridge from other fluid cartridges to prevent the cartridge from being inserted incorrectly into the receiver.
