Date: April 12, 2007
          There is a long way to go before universal ink cartridge get the maturated level of original ink cartridge. To whole consumers and consuming material markets, universal ink cartridge seems like appear for a long time. Although universal ink cartridge have occupied partial market share now, it still the second choice of consumers in consuming material market, even be in trouble with patent of original ink cartridge again and again, which looks like unusual with the normal development. So, the author has three questions to universal ink cartridge: What are you waiting for?
          Question1: The abnormal development of printer technology
          Its very common that people could see thousands of millions of advertisement for universal ink cartridge from TV or place where crowded, these ads dont waste any chance to promoting their trademarks as well as outstanding print quality of their printers, and some ads have ever stated that the universal ink cartridge has the same print quality with original. What if in that case, the author has a question to universal ink cartridge, how come the products of itself havent appeared in market now since its printed quality so Well
          Here we need explaining print quality firstly. Actually the print quality we usually say ,is not the same greatly with the final printed result, but the synthetic effect of engine, ink cartridge and print jet .Print jet is very important to print precision of Final printed effect ,and the color depend on ink quality more. Print jet and ink cartridge are working with print engine to showing the final effect for user. Many sounds said that universal ink cartridge just a litter different compared with original ink cartridge, which main in light of print precision indeed. 
          Presently, its true that universal ink cartridge has outstanding performance according to the test have done by IT168 about quality of universal ink cartridge. So the question is coming up: The print jet is an important technology to original manufacturers. If universal ink cartridge manufacturers of all in one can grasp the skills and produce products with good quality, why they havent designed their own printer yet? And universal ink cartridge has two of the three most important technology except print engine, Haven’t it is the only trouble for manufacturers to produce their own print facilities.   
          Although it isn’t greatly change, there is no print engine manufacturers available till now, even nobody have raised the topic of design their own facilities since many manufacturers can gain so important technology like print jet easily. They should know that they will always be involved into trouble with print patent if develop in that way. Haven’t manufacturers are willing to see this abnormal development? They have outstanding technology for print jet, however, no facilities with themselves, which is the point that author most puzzling.
