Provided is a technique that enables openings for injecting liquid to be sealed with a simple and low-cost configuration. A liquid reservoir container includes: a reservoir portion configured to contain liquid in an inside of the reservoir portion and having multiple openings communicating with the inside; a supply portion connected to at least one of the openings and configured to supply liquid to the reservoir portion from a tank reserving the liquid via a flow path; and a sheet member. The liquid reservoir container supplies liquid reserved in the reservoir portion to an ejecting portion configured to eject liquid, and the sheet member is attached to the reservoir portion so as to seal an opening to which the supply portion is not connected of the multiple openings.

A fluidic ejection cartridge and protective tape therefor. The fluidic ejection cartridge has a cartridge body for an organic solvent-based fluid having a cover closing a first end thereof, an ejection head on a second end thereof opposite the first end, and side walls attached to the first and second ends between the first and second ends, wherein the side walls comprise a first side wall, a second side wall opposite the first side wall, a first end wall attached to the first and second side walls, and a second end wall opposite the first end wall attached to the first and second side walls. A removable tape is attached to a nozzle plate of the ejection head and to a portion of the first side wall, wherein the removable tape comprises a polymeric backing film and a platinum-cured silicone adhesive.

A liquid material filling device and method are provided which are intended to prevent air bubbles from remaining along an entire length of a flow passage extending from a liquid material reservoir (51) to a discharge port (53). The liquid material filling device includes a chamber (10) of an airtight structure, a pressure regulator (70) for regulating pressure in the chamber (10), and a control device (100). The liquid material is filled as follows. A negative pressure supply source (71) is communicated with a chamber communication pipe (90) and with a discharge device communication pipe (91) to reduce the pressure in the chamber (10) and pressure in an upper space of the reservoir (51) to a vacuum or a low pressure level close to a vacuum, and a resulted low-pressure state is maintained for a certain time to expel out air bubbles in the liquid material.

A liquid circulation device includes a housing having an outlet and an inlet, a circulation unit configured to convey liquid out of the housing through the outlet and recover liquid into the housing through the inlet, a liquid supplying unit configured to supply liquid into the housing, an air conveying unit configured to convey air into and out of the housing, a level detecting unit configured to detect a level of the liquid in the housing, a pressure sensing unit configured to detect a pressure of the air in the housing, and a control unit configured to control a pressure of the liquid in the housing by controlling the liquid supplying unit or the air conveying unit, based on the level and the pressure of the air.

In an example, there is provided a closure device. The closure device comprises an air-permeable and ink-impermeable membrane to prevent ink egress from a refillable ink tank of a printer. The membrane has an ink tank side and an air side. The closure device also comprises a tortuous air flow path connecting the air side of the membrane to an exterior of the ink tank.

A sensor circuit for a replaceable print apparatus component comprises an interface to transmit signals with respect to a print apparatus logic circuit, and further comprises, connected to the interface, at least two sensor cell arrays, each array including nominally the same cells, the cells of one array being nominally different than the cells of the other array, and at least one single cell sensor that is nominally different than the other cells.

In an example, a method comprises, by logic circuitry associated with a replaceable print apparatus component installed in a print apparatus, receiving a sensor data request and determining whether the request is for data indicative of a print material level or for data indicative of a pressurisation event. In the event that the request is a request for data indicative of the print material level, the method may comprise responding with a first data response in a first value range; and in the event that the request is a request for data indicative of a pressurisation event, the method may comprise responding with a second data response in a second value range.

In an example, a method includes, by logic circuitry associated with a replaceable print apparatus component installed in a print apparatus, responding to a sensor data request received from the print apparatus by returning a first response; receiving a calibration parameter from the print apparatus; and returning a second response which is different from the first response.

Disclosed herein are sensor circuits for a replaceable print material container, the sensor circuit to communicate with a printer logic circuit. An example sensor circuit includes a first sensor to detect at least one of a pneumatic stimulus or a pressurization applied by a printer, a second sensor, and an interface to communicate with at least one of a voltage source or a data source of the printer logic circuit. The example sensor circuit also includes logic circuitry, responsive to a class parameter, to: (a) output a first signal based on at least one of the pneumatic stimulus or the pressurization sensed by the first sensor when the class parameter is a first class parameter; and (b) output a second signal based on at least one of an output of the second sensor, different data, or a different algorithm when the class parameter is a second class parameter.

An ink accommodation body capable of accommodating a sublimation transfer ink injected, via an injection port from, a bottle accommodating the sublimation transfer ink, and a first cover having a cap capable of closing the injection port, and movable between a closing position at which the cap closes the injection port and an opening position at which the cap opens the injection port, are included, and the cap can be inserted into and pulled out of the injection port in an opening direction of the injection port when the first cover moves between the closing position and the opening position, and the first cover has a finger-hooking portion enabling insertion and pulling of the cap with a finger.
