Friends who have used handheld inkjet printers all know that the ink cartridges of handheld inkjet printers are very similar in appearance to the printer ink cartridges we use in our daily office. Can we use the ink cartridges on ordinary printers to apply them to handheld inkjet printers? The answer given by Zhicai is of course no. Maybe you will ask again, what is the difference between the two ink cartridges? The difference between the two ink cartridges is also the focus that the company wants to share with you today.

First, the capacity is different. The two ink cartridges have different capacities. The ink cartridges of handheld inkjet printers have a capacity of 42ml, while the ink cartridges of printers are generally around 20ml (the ink cartridges have different capacity depending on the model).

The second is that the properties of ink are different. The ink properties of handheld inkjet printers are mainly solvent-based inks. Ordinary printer inks are water-based inks.

Third, the scope of application materials is different. The handheld inkjet printer is ink that can be applied to almost a variety of materials such as glass, metal, and plastic. The nature of the ink used in office printers is that it can only be used on paper products, and its applicability is single.

Since the two ink cartridges are essentially different, they cannot be used in common.
