R-Jet Tek Adds New Replacement
Chips for HP Cartridges

(Colorado Springs, CO) Oct 2, 2006 – R-Jet Tek announces the addition of 10 new chips to their line of replacement microprocessor chips for inkjet cartridges. Six chips, including black color and photo for the HP 02 cartridges, are now available and in stock. Four chips, black and color for the #88 cartridges are also now available. These chips will enable the remanufacturers to produce cartridges that are functionally equivalent to the O.E.M. cartridges.  “With consumer demand building for these cartridges, our customers have been getting more and more requests for them. We have responded and offer these new chips as part of our OneSource commitment,” says Vic Johnson, R-Jet Tek’s Communications Director. “By adding support for these popular cartridges, remanufacturers can increase their product line, and gain new customers whose needs can now be met,” Johnson said.
According to Johnson, “Cartridges remanufactured without a chip replacement often were not recognized by the printer. In addition, the absence of these chips, which monitor ink levels, can lead to print head damage if the cartridges run dry. The aftermarket chips are designed to perform much like the originals and, although they are for onetime use and cannot be reset, fill a significant void in the inkjet cartridge remanufacturing process.” He adds, “These chips provide an affordable solution for remanufacturers as more and more OEMs move to chip-enhanced cartridges.”

Automation for these cartridges is done by way of two new attachments designed for R-Jet Tek’s popular refill systems. The JetMate 02 and JetMate 88 units expand the capabilities of the equipment, and increase their functionality,” says Johnson. He advises those interested in these units to call the sales department for more information.

The chips are available by calling an R-Jet Tek sales representative at 719-578-0506 or toll free at 800-688-0129 or from the company’s website at www.rjettek.com.
