ABSTRACT:
In order to facilitate the transfer and utilization of a tank of ink in a printing facility, an ink tank/pump system includes a plurality of ink tanks each adapted to accommodate a pump for supplying a press with ink from the tank. The system also includes a transfer cart having a generally flat, horizontal surface to support at least one of the ink tanks thereon. The transfer cart is adapted to move from one point to another, e.g., from an ink tank storage location to a press location. The system still further includes a receiver cart having a generally flat, horizontal surface to support at least one of the ink tanks thereon. With this arrangement, the tank supporting surfaces of the transfer and receiver carts are alignable, which accommodates slidably moving the ink tanks therebetween, and the ink tanks may include a splash resistant lip.
