Knowing how an ink cartridge work can save you money

Written by Larry Andrew


A printer ink cartridge usually contains a print head and circuitry. Atrepparttar bottom of an inkjet cartridge are nozzles or what is commonly referred to as “jets”. There can be from 50 to several hundred of these nozzles. Each of these nozzles is smaller in diameter than a human hair. They are connected to a resistor that heats (or allows to cool)repparttar 107619 printer ink withinrepparttar 107620 ink cartridge. When ink is heated it forms a bubble. When it cools,repparttar 107621 bubble shoots dots of ink through these nozzles onto your printer paper. Because this heating/cooling process is so rapid, your inkjet cartridge can produce thousands of ink droplets per second.

The heaters and nozzles of an ink cartridge will continue to work, even when your printer ink runs out. Testing suggests thatrepparttar 107622 heating unit of an average inkjet cartridge will continue to work for as many as three to five refills.

When your ink cartridge runs out of ink, you have a couple of options. First, you can purchase a printer ink refill kit and fillrepparttar 107623 cartridge yourself. This will extendrepparttar 107624 life of your inkjet cartridge and significantly reduce cost. Second, you could purchase a compatible printer inkjet cartridge. These cartridges are manufactured torepparttar 107625 same standards asrepparttar 107626 original cartridge and will not ruin your printer. Remember,repparttar 107627 print head and circuitry are normally inrepparttar 107628 ink cartridge, not inrepparttar 107629 printer itself.
