Jettec wins Queens Award for money saving printer cartridges
Jet Tec, Europe's leading manufacturer of compatible inkjet printer cartridges, has won this year's Queen's Award for Innovation for its Extra Life technology that allows them to put 30 percent more usable ink into the printer cartridge.
In the wake of last year's national media outcry against the "hidden" costs of running a printer, Jet Tec launched its own Extra Life printer cartridge that reduces wasted ink and saves the consumer money.
Jet Tec Extra Life printer cartridges are compatible with the popular Epson inkjet printers, and have been an extremely big seller worldwide since the launch of the full range last year. The 2004 Queen's Award has delighted the whole team at Jet Tec, according to John Studholme, managing director.
He says:
"The Queen's Award will give us a vital boost in the battle against cheap imports in the fiercely competitive inkjet consumables market. Much credit for this award must go to our in-house research and development team, who developed the microchips, the cartridge designs, the ink and even the machines and tools used to manufacture the products, all from scratch."

About the product
Jet Tec Extra Life printer cartridges feature a tiny microprocessor mounted on the inkjet cartridge that allows the printer to extract more ink from the cartridge after it has initially given the signal that the ink has run out. This results in 30% more prints before the cartridge has to be discarded.
Current ordinary inkjet cartridges for Epson printers stop working when the printer decides that the cartridge is close to empty, despite the fact that some ink always remains inside. The alternative design of the Jet Tec Extra Life inkjet cartridges allows them to contain and deliver more ink, and the printer can access this ink thanks to Jet Tec's patent pending "Smart Chip".
Now, thanks to Jet Tec's Extra Life technology, these inkjet cartridges are not only considerably cheaper than the original cartridges, but the consumer gets 30% more printing capacity absolutely free!
