Printer ink cartridges contain a quantity of black or colored liquid ink for exclusive use in inkjet printers. A cartridge’s body stores ink in a single pack or multiple packs, and built-in electric contacts and chips help improve communication with the printer. Inkjet printers spray tiny ink drops through the ink cartridge nozzles and onto paper to create a print. Cartridges contain either dye-based inks for vibrant, true-to-life color photos and prints or pigment-based inks for the archival-quality text and images photography and graphic designing professionals require.

Maximize Equipment Performance with the Right Printer Ink Cartridges

Most brands involved in the manufacture of printers also make OEM cartridges, so they work seamlessly with the device’s print head and minimize ink usage on test sheets. Tested printer ink cartridges keep the head clean while ensuring optimal print quality and speed. Pairing your equipment with authentic printer and scanner supplies keeps the system running smoothly to maximize use by end users. Most printers come with an owner’s manual, which contains information on the specific, compatible ink cartridges you need. Ink and toner cartridges contain formulas that work with particular printers and plain papers for high-speed performance without sacrificing quality.

High-yield Ink Cartridges Keep Efficiency High

In a busy office, it is important to keep printouts running consistently without a loss of quality. Some printers accommodate high-yield ink cartridges that complete large print jobs before requiring a refill and help minimize waste created by empty cartridges. Businesses with basic or minimal printing needs often benefit from standard options. When you stock up on genuine printer ribbons and ink cartridges, you can rely on the brand to produce professional-quality documents, from client communications to reports and office memos.

Achieve Rich Colors and Clear Printouts with Tri-Color Cartridges

Most inkjet printers use only four colors, which are cyan, yellow, magenta and black (CMYK), to produce millions of colors. Tri-color printer ink cartridges have three separate chambers that contain all ink colors, so you can print high-resolution images with enhanced graphics every time you send something to the printer queue. Black ink usually comes in a separate chamber for printing documents that have sharp text with crisp edges for maximum readability. Some printer models also use ink in different cartridges, so you only replace your most frequently used color, while others use up to eight ink colors for film-quality prints. Use solid ink sticks with compatible printers for the production of accurate color when printing photographs and other graphics.

Automatic Ink Level Monitoring Provides an Efficient Workflow

Most manufacturers provide downloadable software that lets you see relative ink levels visualized in a graph. An integrated circuit chip in many brand original printer ink cartridges helps keep track of how much ink is in each inkjet cartridge. As the level approaches the low-ink threshold, the chip sends an alert to your computer to prevent workflow interruptions. Smart printing technology in some cartridges lets you know when they have been correctly installed.
