FLUID EJECTION DEVICE WITH INTEGRATED INK LEVEL SENSORS |
摘要 |
In an embodiment, a fluid ejection device includes a fluid feed slot formed in a printhead die and a plurality of printhead-integrated ink level sensors (PILS). A fluid ejection device may include a first PILS to sense an ink level of a first chamber in fluid communication with the fluid feed slot, the first PILS to detect an empty ink level of the first chamber when the fluid ejection device is at a first ink level state, and a second PILS to sense an ink level of a second chamber in fluid communication with the fluid feed slot, the second PILS to detect an empty ink level of the second chamber when the fluid ejection device is at a second ink level state, different than the first ink level state |

1. A fluid ejection device comprising:
a fluid feed slot formed in a printhead die; a first printhead-integrated ink level sensor (PILS) to sense an ink level of a first chamber in fluid communication with the fluid feed slot, the first PILS to detect an empty ink level of the first chamber when the fluid ejection device is at a first ink level state; and a second PILS to sense an ink level of a second chamber in fluid communication with the fluid feed slot, the second PILS to detect an empty ink level of the second chamber when the fluid ejection device is at a second ink level state, different than the first ink level state. |
