Ross from SOLDER group has some groovy ink tank thing for his photo
printer that takes about 100ml per tank and has a reset button on the
printhead.  Basically the chip inside the head determines when the tank
is "empty" based on the number of squirts - so even if there's ink left
it can shut down the head.  Having a reset button lets the printer think
it's a fresh cartridge.  The thing is called something like "infinite
ink" (but that brings up a tattooing site, so I could be wrong).
