ABSTRACT:
The feed system is constituted by an ink reservoir and a peristaltic pump. The reservoir has a wall defining a chamber for containing ink and a flexible hose communicating between the inside and the outside of the chamber. The flexible hose has a portion of its length placed outside the chamber against the wall, serving as the suction duct for the peristaltic pump, and constituting a product that is discardable after the ink in the reservoir has been consumed.
