ABOUT OPTIMUSCISS™ CONTINUOUS INK SUPPLY SYSTEM (CISS)
How OptimusCISS™ Continuous Ink Supply System Works?
Special sponge-free cartridges are installed in the printer that holds a small amount of ink. These cartridges are connected via small silicon tubes to an ink reservoir tank. With ink in the reservoir tanks, all the air is removed between the tanks and the cartridges. As ink is drawn out of the cartridge by the printer, a vacuum is formed that automatically pulls more ink to the cartridge via the tubes. Therefore, all the time there is ink in the reservoir tank, ink will continue to flow to the cartridge as required by the printer.
During actual printing OptimusCISS™ INK-SAVER SMART CHIP works intelligently by resetting only when needed.
Other CISS have chips on the cartridge that reset automatically each time you turn on the printer. This means that the printer runs a head cleaning cycle each time the chips are reset. This wastes valuable ink and quickly fills up your printers waste ink pad. Once this pad is full, your otherwise perfectly good printer stops working and requires an expensive service call.
