Embodiment Construction

[0048] Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

[0049] A. Example

[0050] Arrangement of the printing device and ink cartridges

[0051] figure 1 A perspective view showing the configuration of a printing apparatus related to an embodiment of the present invention. The printing apparatus 1000 has a sub scanning feeding mechanism, a main scanning feeding mechanism, and a head driving mechanism. The sub-scanning feed mechanism conveys the printing paper P in the sub-scanning direction using a paper feed roller 10 driven by a paper feed motor (not shown). The main scanning feed mechanism uses the power of the cassette motor 2 to reciprocate the cassette 3 attached to the drive belt in the main scanning direction. The head drive mechanism drives the print head 5 mounted on the cartridge 3 to eject ink and form ink dots. The printing apparatus 1000 additionally includes a main control circuit 40 for controlling the various...

Abstract

A printing material container is detachably attachable to a printing apparatus having a plurality of apparatus-side terminals. The printing material container comprises a first device, a second device, and a terminal group that includes a plurality of first terminals, at least one second terminal and at least one third terminal. The plurality of first terminals are connected to the first device and respectively include a first contact portion for contacting a corresponding terminal among the plurality of apparatus-side terminals. The at least one second terminal is connected to the second device and includes a second contact portion for contacting a corresponding terminal among the plurality of apparatus-side terminals. The at least one third terminal is for the detection of shorting between the at least one second terminal and the at least one third terminal and includes a third contact portion for contacting a corresponding terminal among the plurality of apparatus-side terminals. The at least one second contact portion, the plurality of the first contact portions, and the at least one third contact portion are arranged so as to form one or multiple rows. The at least one secondcontact portion is arranged at an end of one row among the one or multiple rows.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to a printing material container containing printing material and a circuit board mounted on the printing material container, and more particularly, to an arrangement for a plurality of terminals arranged on these components. Background technique [0002] In recent years, ink cartridges used in inkjet printers or other printing apparatuses are generally equipped with means such as memory for storing ink-related information. Also arranged on such an ink cartridge are other devices such as a high-voltage circuit to which a voltage higher than the driving voltage of the memory is applied (eg, a remaining ink level sensor using a piezoelectric element). In such a case, there are cases where the ink cartridge and the printing apparatus are electrically connected through the terminal. A structure has been proposed for preventing an information storage medium from being short-circuited and damaged due to liquid droplet...
