Usually, each is corresponding to the print cartridge of different color, and its installation site on ink-jet printer word car all remains fixing.Therefore, if it can not be inserted its default installation site when print cartridge is installed the time, might damage ink-jet printer.Occur arranged in dislocation when preventing that the user from using, production firm often designs the corresponding outstanding or recessed position corresponding to the different color print cartridge on ink-jet printer word car, make each print cartridge can only be installed to corresponding position.So just make each print cartridge when producing, independent mould must be arranged, cause production cost directly to rise, and before ink injects print cartridge, also must separately deposit empty cartridge, so that increase the quantity in stock of production firm, increase production cost indirectly.
In addition, also there is employing on the identical print cartridge of outward appearance, respectively to increase a LED.This LED is controlled by the modulation that is installed in the control circuit on the print cartridge.This control circuit is connected on the main control unit of ink-jet printer by cable.The position of moving when on the other hand, spraying ink corresponding to print cartridge on ink-jet printer is provided with optical inductor.When ink-jet printer word car moves, print cartridge of carrying will be successively through near the optical inductor on it, control circuit on the print cartridge receives the instruction that ink-jet printer sends, driving LED is luminous, behind the beam signal that optical inductor reception LED on the ink-jet printer sends it is passed to main control unit, main control unit judges in view of the above whether current print cartridge installation site is correct.Under this make, between ink-jet printer and print cartridge, still need stube cable, this can increase cost, reduce the life-span and hinder and print.
Summary of the invention
At the problems referred to above, the object of the invention is to provide a kind of ink-jet printer, and it can correctly discern the installation site of print cartridge on ink-jet printer word car.
Ink-jet printer according to the design of foregoing invention purpose comprises word car, main control unit and print cartridge.The word car is provided with the installation site that is used for carrying several print cartridges.Print cartridge is provided with memory.On ink-jet printer, near the track of word car operation, be provided with the read write line that to realize the double-direction radio communication with memory.Read write line is electrically connected with main control unit.
Aforementioned ink-jet printer, its store memory contain the information that the ink that holds with print cartridge adapts.
Ink-jet printer of the present invention is provided with the memory that can launch wireless signal on the print cartridge of its use, be provided with the read write line of the wireless signal that can receive the aforementioned memory emission near the track of its word car operation.So, the wireless signal about information such as print cartridge model, ink capacity, color kind, installation site corresponding states launched of memory can be sent to main control unit by read write line.Whether correct main control unit will be pre-stored in installation site the indication of making print cartridge after the wireless signal comparison that the print cartridge installation site information of same read write line in the main control unit transmits.
