Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable the residual ink quantity to be controlled individually for each cartridge, by providing an ink cartridge with a rewritable memory so that rewriting can be performed from the printer side. CONSTITUTION:When a printer is set into an operating condition, data on the residual amount of an ink is read from a rewritable nonvolatile memory 3 fitted to an ink cartridge 1, and is written into a memory 12 provided in a main body of the printer. When printing is started by depressing a printer operating SW, the data on the residual amount of the ink is subjected to subtraction by a subtractor 13 each time of, for example, printing one line. When the residual amount of the ink is reduced to zero, for example, an ink run-out alarm can be issued by a printer-controlling part 11. Accordingly, the control of the residual amount of an ink can be performed individually for each ink cartridge, and an accurate ink run-out alarm can be issued when necessary.

ングのインク使用量などに対応して設定される。FIG. 4 shows an example of the configuration of a control circuit for detecting the remaining amount of ink according to the present invention, in which 11 is a printer control section, 12 is a memory RAM, 13 is a subtracter, and 14 is a group of printer operation SWs. Next, the operation of detecting the remaining amount of ink by such a control circuit will be described. At the same time that the power switch of the printer is turned on and the printer enters the operating state, the printer control unit 11 checks the contents of the rewritable non-volatile memory 3 attached to the ink cartridge 1 via the connection between the electrodes 4 and 6. , that is, the data regarding the remaining amount of ink is read out and stored in memory 1 of the printer main body.
2 is written. Therefore, when the print SW in the printer operation 5Wu 14 is pressed to start printing, for example, the data of the remaining ink amount is added to the subtracter 13 for each line.
will be subtracted by The value to be subtracted is set corresponding to the amount of ink used for one line of printing, the amount of ink used for pumping for ink failure recovery, and the like.

うにしてもよい。Note that the timing at which the count value of the remaining amount of ink is written to the rewritable nonvolatile memory 3 attached to the ink cartridge 1 is determined by the signal line IS that detects whether the ink cartridge 1 is stored in a predetermined position. This can be done when it is detected that the cartridge or ridge 1 has been removed, or when the power is turned off, or when the remaining ink level is checked during printing as described above. The process may be performed every time the value changes.
