Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0799703A2] The re-usable lock is provided for a printhead ink supply container. The ink supply line from the printhead to the container is covered by a rubber elastic closure by a hollow needle (5). In the base of the container, two electrodes are fitted through as components of an ink end detector. A cover device (2) is provided for at least one electrode (142). This can be released irreversibly by inserting the needle once. An electrode is surrounded by a ring-shaped member. An electrode is fitted in a recess in the base (14). The edge of the recess extends beyond the electrode.
