Claim 10:
11. A system, comprising:
a syringe body including a switch and an electrical interface at a side surface of the syringe body;
a print material particles reservoir located in the syringe body;
an interface at an end of the syringe body including an output at a distal surface of the syringe body; and
a plunger coaxially located in the print material particles reservoir;
wherein, in response to the plunger moving from a first position to a second position:
the switch is changed;
print material particles located in the print material particles reservoir are supplied from the print material particles reservoir to an imaging device; and
a signal is transmitted by the electrical interface to the imaging device in response to the switch being changed to indicate the print material particles having been supplied to the imaging device from the print material particles reservoir, and

wherein the switch is located between the syringe body and the print material particles reservoir.
