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:
A printing device (100) includes a supply of colorant (102) and a mechanism (104). The mechanism is receptive to removable insertion of a first print cartridge (106) and a second print cartridge (108). One of the first print cartridge and the second print cartridge can be inserted into the mechanism at any given time. The first print cartridge at least ultimately uses the supply of colorant of the printing device to form the images on the media. The second print cartridge has a self-contained supply of colorant that is exclusively used in lieu of the supply of colorant of the printing device to form the images on the media.

Abstract:
An ink supply (24) for a push-primed inkjet printer (20) including an ink reservoir (52), a housing (56), and a pair of valves (66, 68). The housing (56) may enclose the ink reservoir (52) and define an opening (84) that provides fluid communication between the ink reservoir (52) and outside the housing (56). The pair of valves (66, 68) may be coupled to the housing (56), arranged in series, and configured to control the fluid communication.
