Evolving Complexities Constantly Challenge Technology Development in Canon® & HP Cartridges
|
In my opinion there are currently three areas that stand out above all others in strategically shaping our future: cartridge chip technology, polymerised colour toner technology, and intellectual property issues. All three have a direct bearing on the entire range of new Color LaserJets® introduced in the last year.
In May 2005, HP released the Color LaserJet 2600. Its cartridges featured a new direct-contact chip design, a design now utilised on eight colour and monochrome engine series from HP and Canon® -- with more set to release yet this year.
The 2600-type chip contains a high-level secure authentication system. At this time this security system is only fractionally enabled in all the printers utilising the 2600-type chip. However, it is possible for every one of these printers in use worldwide to escalate this security system literally overnight without any action or intervention by anyone. |

Such an escalation would instantly render any aftermarket chip dysfunctional if that chip was not based on a full emulation design equivalent to the OEM chip. |
|
The only solution capable of addressing this authentication system is a fully-emulated aftermarket chip design. And my assessment is that this is the pivotal technology facing the legitimate toner cartridge aftermarket
I wanted to communicate with you directly on this extremely vital subject. I see two things that are critical that you understand:
- This new chip technology can erect a permanent barrier to your business if you do not have the necessary technology solution.
- Static Control has invested thousands of hours of R&D and engineering resources developing the necessary technology. Our reverse engineering and emulation prototyping work has been completed and we are now in the process of setting up our manufacturing processes.
Bottom line, Static Control has the technology you need to move your business forward.
Sincerely Yours, |
