Abstract: The present invention is an ink container for use in an ink jet printing system. The printing system has a printhead under control of printing system electronics and an ink container receiving station for providing ink to the printhead. The replaceable ink container includes a plurality of container interfacing features positioned on the ink container to engage corresponding ink container receiving station interfacing features. The ink container interfacing features are disposed and arranged to allow a plurality of different sizes of the ink container to be installed at a particular location of the receiving station. The ink container also includes an information storage device that provides information indicative of a volume of ink contained in said ink container.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an inkjet printhead having a plurality of drop generators that selectively eject ink in response to activation. The inkjet printhead includes first and second drop generators disposed on the printhead. Each of the first and second drop generators are configured for connection to a source of drive current. The inkjet printhead also includes a control device configured for connection to a periodic address signal and first and second periodic enable signals. The control device is responsive to the first periodic enable signal and periodic address signal for enabling the first drop generator for activation in response to drive current. The control device is responsive to the second periodic enable signal and periodic address signal for enabling the second drop generator for activation in response to drive current.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an inkjet printing system that includes an inkjet printhead having a plurality of electrical contacts: address contacts and enable contacts for enabling drop generators (42) and drive current contacts for providing drive current to enable drop generators for selectively ejecting ink therefrom. The printing device provides periodic address signals (A(1-13)) and enable signals (E(1-2)) to the address and enable contacts one the printhead. In addition, the printing device selectively applies drive current (P(1-16)) to accomplish forming images on print media. Each individual heating element (44) is controlled by a drive circuit comprising three FET (48, 50, 52). By controlling the first and second signals E(1) and E(2), and the adress signal (A(1)) the switching device (48) is selectively actived to conduct current through the heating element (44) if drive current is present from drive source (P(1)).
