Abstract
Operating a fluid delivering system in a printer, wherein the fluid delivering system comprises a fluid supply including a fluid bag which contains a fluid to be delivered to a fluid delivering tube connected to a printhead, and a closed pressurizing volume which surrounds the fluid bag to expel fluid from the fluid bag to the fluid delivering tube when applying pressure from a pressurizing system to the pressurizing volume, wherein pressure in the pressurizing system relative to atmosphere is measured by a first sensor, and wherein a second sensor provides an output signal which indicates a pressure difference between the pressurizing system and the fluid delivering tube, comprising disconnecting the pressurizing volume of the fluid supply from the pressurizing system, providing a connection of the pressurizing volume to atmosphere to transmit atmospheric pressure to the fluid, generating pressure in the pressurizing system, performing measurements of the pressure in the pressurizing system relative to atmosphere by the first sensor, and calibrating the second sensor by the measurements of the first sensor.
