A printing consumable control device and self-adaptive control method

Abstract

The invention discloses a printing consumable self-adaptive control method and a printing consumable control device, wherein the method includes: receiving a pairing instruction from a printer; searching for pairing information corresponding to the pairing instruction; judging whether the pairing information is used; if not, then call the response data in the response data set and send them to the printer until the pairing is successful; if so, call the response data in the response data set corresponding to the pairing information and send the response The data is sent to the printer, and when the pairing with the printer is unsuccessful, the remaining response data in the response data set is sequentially retrieved and sent to the printer until the pairing is successful. Through the present invention, the printing consumables using the method or device can automatically identify the printer model, which is suitable for multiple types of printers, without any manual intervention, and does not need to be modified on the printing consumables for different types of printers, reducing the cost.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of printing control, in particular to a printing consumable control device, an adaptive control method and printing consumables. Background technique [0002] Nowadays, printers are more and more common in daily office use. When toner or ink run out, people need to replace new toner drum or ink cartridge and just can continue to carry out normal printing work. When replacing new consumables, you can usually choose original consumables (toner cartridges or ink cartridges) provided by the original factory, or regular compatible consumables produced by other manufacturers. Compared with original consumables, compatible consumables have the advantages of more choices and lower prices. [0003] However, printers generally have to perform safety verification on their consumables and accessories. During use, they will also identify consumables and accessories to ensure that only consumables and accessories that p...

Problems solved by technology

However, since there are many brands and models of printers, for example, a brand has hundreds of models, the existing compatible consumables can only be used for a certain brand and a certain model of printers, and cannot be flexibly used across brands and models

Therefore, in order to meet the market demand, it is necessary to produce corresponding types of compatible consumables separately, and the consumption cost is relatively high.
