More Information on Inkjet Printer Ink

The modern day inkjet printers are equipped to produce both black & white and color prints on a paper. Generally the kind of printer ink that needs to be replaced inside the empty cartridge depends upon the model and brand of the inkjet printer. Every model and brand is designed to work on specific type of inkjet printer. A color inkjet printer ink is available in single cartridge or multiple cartridge system.

In the single cartridge system the print ink colors bundled inside single cartridge. While in the multiple cartridge system different color cartridges are used to produce variety of colors. The ink used in printer cartridges would be either pigment based or dye based.

Dye based inks offer wide range of colors but they have inferior water resistance and fade resistance properties. In addition they dry slowly when compared to the pigmented inks. The pigmented inks are far most superior in terms of water and fade resistance. The pigment based printer inks dry faster but their only drawback is that they don't provide better effect of colors. Pigment based inks are expensive than the dye based inks.

The main characteristic of any ink used in a printer is it's resistance to water solubility and fading factors. Then the ink shouldn't dry up quickly and bleed. Additionally the ink must produce a sharp and better print quality.

The inkjet printer inks are manufactured by both the third party and printing vendors. There are different varieties of inkjet printer inks are available in market. Each of the printers ink works effectively on particular brand of the printer and model. As the printer inks are patented, the third party vendors would develop their own inks to suits various models or brands available. However the manufacturers of unique and original ink claim that these inks are complex in their composition, hence the ones manufactured by third party developers may not be compatible with latest advancements in printing technology or printers.

On the other hand the inks manufactured by third party vendors are almost compatible with modern day cartridges and they are more or less similar to original cartridges. These vendors offer refilling kits to refill the used or empty cartridges for customers at affordable prices.

But it is better advised for customers to be careful while purchasing printer cartridges, as there are numerous counterfeit and spurious inks circulating in market. Therefore the customers are advised to buy inkjet inks from reputed and certified printing store or vendor.
