An ink container for an inkjet printing system is described, including an assembly of a simple housing (1102) with caps (1104, 1106). The container includes a separately fabricated first cap (1104) attached to an end of the housing, the first cap having a plurality of mechanical features that provide mechanical functions for the ink container. The mechanical functions can include positioning the ink container relative to the supply station, a keying function for preventing installation of an ink container in the supply station without a cap providing the keying function, a boss (1158) for protecting a leading surface of the ink container and the fluid outlet from physical damage. The other end of the housing has attached to it a second cap (1106) having a latch feature (1232) for latching the ink container in the supply station, and an oversized handle (1106a) that prevents backwards insertion. The housing includes a pressure vessel that surrounds the ink reservoir, and the first cap is secured to the pressure vessel.
