<p>An ink jet printing apparatus which is adapted to producing images using inks having predetermined concentrations of a label material therein, includes a printhead, an ink delivery system adapted to provide inks to the printhead, and a sensor associated with the ink delivery system. The sensor is sensitive to the label material in the ink and adapted to produce a signal which is characteristic of the concentration of the label material in the ink. The ink delivery system includes an ink reservoir and an ink flow channel between the ink reservoir and the printhead. The sensor is positioned to sense the concentration of the label material in the ink in the flow channel and/or in the ink reservoir. The sensor may be adapted to sense a magnetic field of the label material, an electromagnetic field of the label material, infrared photons of the label material, or fluorescent photons of the label material. <IMAGE></p> |
