Abstract

The invention discloses a cartridge, a chip arranged on the cartridge, a printer matched with cartridge and a method for confirming installation of the cartridge. The cartridge comprises an ink sac, a chip contact part, an information storing part, an invisible light emitting part and a controller. The ink sac is used for storing ink; the chip contact part is used for electrically communicating with a contact part arranged on the ink-jet printer; the information storing part is used for storing the related information of the cartridge; the invisible light emitting part is used for emitting the invisible light; and the controller is used for controlling the access of the information storing part, controlling the invisible light emitting part according to the information received by the chip contact part and provided by the ink-jet printer and receiving the command from the ink-jet printer through the chip contact part. The chip arranged on the cartridge comprises the chip contact part, the information storing part, the invisible light emitting part and the controller. Whether the cartridge is arranged on the right position can be identified by the ink-jet printer.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of inkjet printers, in particular to an ink cartridge, a chip mounted on the ink cartridge, a matching printer and a method for confirming the installation of the ink cartridge. Background technique [0002] On an inkjet printer, a recording head is included that includes ejection ports and their corresponding energy generating elements that eject ink on a recording material through the ejection ports in accordance with desired information to be recorded. The energy generating element may be an electrothermal sensing element that generates a thermal energy effect to establish film boiling in the ink jetted ink. In such an inkjet printer, a recording head and an ink container are integrally constituted as a unit or are provided separately, and an ink cartridge having ink is used to supply ink to the recording head. According to the color and / or type of the ink, different ink cartridges are set and supported on the car...
