Refillability | High-volume printing (offices, print shops) | - Industry Standard: Non-refillable (single-use) - Our Base: 10+ refills (ISO/IEC 19752) ▲ - Our Advanced: 15+ refills (ISO/IEC 19752) ▲▲ | Reduces long-term costs by 40%+ (vs single-use). Lower environmental impact. | Requires refill kits; potential for leakage if mishandled. |
Chip Technology | Professional printing workflows | - Industry Standard: Non-resettable chips (must replace) - Our Base: Manual reset chip (IEC 61131-2) ▲ - Our Advanced: Auto-reset chip (IEC 61131-3) ▲▲ | Eliminates cartridge replacement costs for Base/Advanced tiers. Higher reliability. | Base requires manual intervention; Advanced may have higher upfront cost. |
Ink Type Compatibility | Multi-purpose printing (photos, documents, textiles) | - Industry Standard: Single ink type (e.g., dye ink) - Our Base: Dual compatibility (pigment + dye ink) ▲ - Our Advanced: Triple compatibility (add sublimation ink) ▲▲ | Enables professional photo/textile printing. Adapts to diverse material needs. | Potential ink mixing challenges in multi-type systems. |
Cross-Brand Compatibility | Multi-printer environments (Ricoh/Epson) | - Industry Standard: Brand-locked (e.g., Ricoh-only) - Our Base: Ricoh + Epson ▲ - Our Advanced: Ricoh + Epson + Canon/Lexmark ▲▲ | Reduces inventory needs for multi-brand users. Universal compatibility. | Advanced compatibility may require firmware updates. |
Material Design | Real-time ink level monitoring | - Industry Standard: Opaque casing (0% visibility) - Our Base: Transparent body (ISO 3801) ▲ - Our Advanced: UV-resistant transparent material ▲▲ | Base allows visual monitoring; Advanced maintains clarity over time. | Transparent design may show ink residue buildup. |
Reset Functionality | High-throughput printing workflows | - Industry Standard: Manual reset after each use - Our Base: Software-triggered reset (▲) - Our Advanced: Auto-reset on printer reboot (▲▲) | Advanced tier eliminates manual steps for efficiency. Streamlines workflows. | Base requires learning new software tools. |
