Abstract
A device for continuously measuring a level of an ink in a tank () of a continuous ink-jet (CIJ) printer, including: a first pair of electrodes () and part for connecting this pair of electrodes in series, for measuring the impedance of a first predetermined height of the ink, in the tank, a second pair of electrodes () and part for connecting this second pair of electrodes in series, for measuring a second height of the ink in the tank, this second height being included between this first height and a maximum level; part for calculating the second height, from the resistive components of the 2 impedances measured, independently of the ink conductivity.
