Possible Investigation - Continous Feed Refill / Reset Inbuilt

Open Hawk-v3 opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Thank you for your investigation here, and your work on making a rewinder!

While I wouldn't be sure how to do it, as I'm not much of a tinkerer, could you not modify a cartridge (or maybe two, one Pop one R&R) to use something like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuous_ink_system

I figure the easiest way would be to pipe up a Pop cartridge with a count of 90 washes with an inbuilt reset module, and when those 90 are done, use a piped up or refillable-plugged R&R cartridge with it's own inbuilt reset module. You'd save space inside them for the electronics by emptying the tanks and carving them away.

You can enable the Write Protect on the EEPROM, and Bob will be unable to update the wash count, making it working forever.
