Zusammenfassung:	An ink delivery system (10) comprising an ink bag or reservoir (14), a bladder (16) and a print head (24) is provided. A valve (38) provides selected fluid communication to permit total closure (no ink flow), fluid communication from the ink bag to the bladder (refill mode) and fluid communication from the bladder to the print head (print mode). The ink bag comprises a material impervious to air and water and bladder comprises a resilient material capable of several refills. Both are mounted on one side of a platform support (12). The valve is mounted in a plenum chamber (22) on the oppsite side of the platform support and is provided with a rotatable valve stem (50) to permit rotation of the valve to its various modes. The print head is mounted on the plenum chamber.
