ABSTRACT:
An emulator is provided for an ink tank. The emulator duplicates one or more of the ink tank features, which are sensed by a print engine to permit proper operation of the print engine. The emulator is an element designed to be attached to an ink tank which lacks one or more of the aforementioned ink tank features which are sensed by the print engine to ensure proper operation of the print engine. The emulator may attach to an ink tank which is placed into an ink tank receptacle or may fit by itself into the ink tank receptacle. The emulator will permit ink tanks to be used in print engines without the need to provide the one or more sensed features for each ink tank.
