3.0 Operation
3.1 Introduction
This section will briefly review the Fuel.tank Add-on DLL operation and the interaction
between the jet.engine GUI and Fuel.tank Add-on DLL software. The Fuel.tank Add-on
DLL is detected and loaded by the GUI whenever the software is run. To disable the
Fuel.tank Add-on, remove the Fuel.tank.dll file from the GUI directory and re-run the
GUI.

Click on the Add button to create a new Bulk Cartridge. The available ink is
automatically set to 100 percent. Type in the desired name of the new cartridge in the
Name: field (here we use Bulk Supply 1). Select the Volume(ml) for the installed
cartridge from the drop down field (here we select 400 ml).

The Pen Parameters Window is displayed. Used the Pen Type drop downs to change
any pens connected to a Fuel.tank bulk to a Manifold pen (we change pen 1 here).
Note that an Ink Source is added to the right of the manifold pen. The default ink
source is disconnected select the ink source for the pen (we select Bulk Supply 1
here). Next, set the Available Ink to 62% for the manifold pen. The default pen life is
800 ml, so Inc.jet recommends the available ink be changed to 62% for a newly
installed pen during Alpha testing to set the pen life to 500 ml.
Setup of the Pens is now complete. Add any additional pens to the bulk supply as
required and click OK to store the settings.

Note that the Manifold pen is displayed in Black. Also note that the estimated Volume to
empty is now displayed for each pen (this is a new feature).

When the pen life has reached the alarm point, the bar graph will change from black
(or blue) to red. Note the large difference in Pages to empty for the two pens in alarm
state below. One pen is a Manifold pen, with 80 ml to end of life and the other pen is
a cartridge pen with only 8 ml to empty.

When the fuel.tank bulk supply is low on ink this state will be indicated to the operator
by highlighting the fuel.tank tab with a red border. NOTE: No indication is made in the
Print Manager for a Bulk low state, and the operator must keep track of the fuel tank tab
to track the state of the bulk supply.

In general, the default alarms setup in the system provide the operator with plenty of
time to track the bulk ink usage when near end of life.

Once the fuel.tank Configuration window is displayed, select the name of the bulk to
reset from the list and click Reset to restore the available ink to 100%. In multiple bulk
systems, the operator can also use the Reset All Empty Sources or Reset All buttons.
Click OK to reset update the Fuel.tank configuration.

After a fuel.tank is updated, any ink used by the attached pens when the bulk was
empty will be removed from the new bulk. This is because the bulk will refill all the
attached pens as soon as it is attached.

This will bring up the Pen Properties window. Since printing is ongoing, all entry boxes
are disabled except the disconnect button for each manifold pen. Press the disconnect
button to tell the GUI the pen has been disconnected from the bulk supply.
When disconnecting a pen, a warning message is displayed (you must click yes to
disconnect).
When a pen is disconnected, its status is changed to disconnect and it can not be
reconnected.

Then pen status for a disconnected pen does not look any different then a connected
pen. The disconnection only tells the GUI to stop subtracting ink from the fuel.tank bulk
for that pen. Once disconnected, the rest of the ink in the pen can be used until the pen
is empty.
