[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the present invention are: First, the present invention uses the ink in the inner ink cartridge to print labels through the inkjet printer body, so that the pressure in the inner ink cartridge drops, and it is necessary to inhale an equal volume of air to maintain pressure balance. The air inhaled by the inner ink cartridge can be replaced with ink through the connection between the siphon and the outer ink cartridge, so that the inner ink cartridge can inhale an equal amount of ink from the outer ink cartridge while providing ink to the inkjet printer body, thereby ensuring continuous and smooth supply. The outer ink cartridge has an ink filling port for convenient ink replenishment, and air holes in the air permeable plate to maintain pressure balance inside and outside the container.

When the rolled-up label strip reaches a certain thickness, the label strip roll will lift up the collision detector, triggering an alarm, automatically shutting down the printing receiver body and pausing the inkjet printer body, waiting for the staff to replace it. Among them, the frame supports the fan, and the wind is pumped into the heater through the air duct for heating treatment, and the hot air is pumped out from the air outlet duct into the air outlet plate. The size of the air outlet is reduced by the air discharge strip of the air discharge plate to increase the speed of the wind flow. At the same time, the discharge needle is started to discharge and ionize the air into a large number of positive and negative ions. The positive and negative ions are blown to the surface of the label strip by hot air to neutralize static electricity, so as to prevent the label strip from sticking together due to static electricity adsorption, affecting the drying effect and subsequent operations. The position of the air regulating plate on the bottom plate is adjusted by an electric push rod supported by the connecting plate, and the air outlet rate can be adjusted according to the rolling speed of different electronic labels.
[0018] Third, the present invention detects the liquid level of the ink in the outer ink cartridge by a first liquid level detector. When the liquid level is lower than the first liquid level detector, the first liquid level detector detects that there is no liquid flooding, and starts the electric gate to allow the ink injection tube to inject ink into the outer ink cartridge from the ink injection port until the liquid level floods the second liquid level detector again. The second liquid level detector closes the electric gate and resets the first liquid level detector, which can automatically replenish the ink volume in the outer ink cartridge without manual injection and supervision, and displays the amount of ink used that day in real time through a flow monitor, and rotates the rotating shaft through a motor, and continuously stirs the ink in the outer ink cartridge with a stirring rod to prevent it from condensing.
