Abstract

Procédé de blocage du fonctionnement d'un module d'impression jetable comportant un réservoir d'encre et une pluralité de buses d'éjection d'encre dont des buses non utilisées et destiné à être monté sur une base d'une machine à affranchir dans lequel on forme préalablement un compteur de niveau d'encre résiduel à partir d'une première partie déterminée des buses non utilisées, on détermine le volume d'encre consommé, on détruit une des buses non utilisées du compteur de niveau d'encre résiduel à chaque fois que le module d'impression est monté sur une nouvelle base de machine à affranchir ou que le volume d'encre consommé dépasse un niveau d'encre prédéterminé, et on bloque le fonctionnement du module d'impression lorsque toutes les buses non utilisées du compteur de niveau d'encre résiduel ont été détruites.
