Abstract
A fluid ejection system includes a fluid receiving unit configured to receive fluid. The fluid receiving unit includes a predetermined fluid storage capacity to store the received fluid. The fluid ejection system also includes a fluid ejector unit having a plurality of nozzles to selectively eject fluid toward the fluid receiving unit at a respective frequency and a remaining fluid determination module configured to determine a remaining amount of the received fluid stored in the fluid receiving unit. The remaining amount of the received fluid is based on a respective variable fluid evaporation ratio corresponding to the respective frequency of the ejected fluid and an ejected amount of the fluid ejected toward the fluid receiving unit from the fluid ejector unit.
