Printer systems
The ISS PCAs are two electronic PCAs located on the rear of the Ink Supply Station. The ISS PCAs provide
the following:
• Pressure Ink Level Sense (PILS) measurement.
• Ink supply presence detection.
• Ink Cartridge broken bag detection.
• Ink supply smart chip interface.
• Air pressure measurement and air pump shutdown.
• Humidity and temperature measurements.
• System back-up EEPROM.
Components
Below is a picture showing the connections and components located at the rear of the ISS.
Top and Lower ISS PCAs
Both top and lower ISS PCAs share the same PCB, the only difference between them is that the lower PCA
is a simplification of the top PCA, the top PCA contains these additional parts:
• EEPROM
• Connection from the Printmech
• Air pressure sensor
