Inu mwamvapo mafanizo onse kale. Mwachitsanzo, ngati mukuyerekezera mitengo pa gallon, mungapeze kuti printeryi imakwera mtengo kuposa madzi ena onse kupatulapo Chanel No. 5, LSD, ndi poizoni ya cobra. Koma ndendende chifukwa chiyani printer ink imakhala yotsika kwambiri? Limeneli ndi funso limene ndinafunsa Thom Brown, katswiri wodziwa inki ku HP. Thom poyamba mwaulemu anatsutsa lingaliro lakuti mungaphunzirepo kanthu kogwiritsidwa ntchito ndi maapulo-oranges kuyerekezera inkino yosindikizira kwa zina zamadzimadzi ambiri, chifukwa nthawi yochulukirapo komanso ntchito yowuntha imapanga kupanga printer ink - ndipo mukagula cartridge yatsopano yatsopano, mukugulanso mutu wovuta kwambiri womwe umalola kuti inki ipange makalata pa tsamba kapena kupanga zithunzi zochititsa chidwi kwambiri. Tawonani, akuti, poyeretsa bwino ndipo zinthu zimawoneka mosiyana. Chokhoza cha Red Bull chikhoza kuwononga ndalama zokwana madola 4 koma zosangalatsa, ngati ndizo zomwe mumachitcha, zimangokhala mphindi zingapo, pamene cartridge inkjet ikhoza kwa miyezi kapena mazana masamba masamba angapo pa tsamba.
Ndipo kumvetsera Thom akufotokoza izo, n'zosadabwitsa kuti cartridges inkjet ntchito konse. Iye akuti, m'zaka za 1970, pamene katswiri wina wa HP ankayang'ana kapu ya khofi ya percolator ndikudabwa kuti ndondomekoyi ikhoza kuchitika popanda kuthamanga kokha, ndi mphamvu ya kutentha, ndikudabwa ngati njira yomweyi ingayikidwe inki pa tsamba. Pa cartridge yotchedwa inkjet cartridge, izo zimatero.
"Cartridge yotchedwa inkjet iyenera kukhala pa shelefu imene ikudikirira kugula, ndiyeno khalani mu printer yanu," akutero. "Ndiye inki ili mu mawonekedwe a madzi ndipo imayenera kukhala yolimba kwa miyezi 18 pa nthawi." Pamene chosindikiziracho chikugwiritsidwa ntchito, madzi osasintha amatha kunena mofulumira kwambiri ngati inki imadutsa mumphuno wothamanga (cartridge iliyonse ili ndi mazana ambiri, gawo limodzi la magawo atatu ndi tsitsi lonse la tsitsi la munthu). Brown akunena makilogalamu 300 digiri Celsius pafupi ndi nanosecond pamene akuthamangitsidwa, ndipo phokoso lirilonse likuwombera pafupifupi 36,000 pawiri. (Ngati munayamba mwadzifunsapo, inki ikuyenda makilomita pafupifupi 30 pa ola limodzi - ndipo motalikirana ndi molondola, inkdrop yomwe imatsogoleredwa kumalo ake oyenera pamapepala ndi Brown, akuti ndi ofanana kuponyera mphesa ku nyumba ya nsanjika 30 mu chidebe pamsewu.) Iyenera kugwedeza pepalali ndi dontho lozungulira, kapena ilo silidzawoneka molondola muchithunzicho. Ndiyeno ziyenera kuyanika mwamsanga ndipo, chiyembekezo chimodzi, kusasintha kwa moyo wa chikalata kapena chithunzi.
Ndizovuta kuti musagwirizane ndi Brown pamene akuseka ndikuti, "Ndizodabwitsa kuti zimagwira ntchito konse."
Kuvuta kwa inkina iliyonse ndi chifukwa chake amalangizira anthu kuti asamatsitsire makhadi awo, ngakhale kuti HP sachitapo kanthu pofuna kuteteza anthu kuti asatero, akuti - inde, ali ndi chidaliro chakuti anthu adzakhala ndi vuto loipa ma refill omwe tsopano amapereka Ndondomeko ya Amnesty Program komwe, ngati mutagawana zomwe mukukumana nazo ndi kukonzedwa kwa inki, iwo amapereka gawo la 20 peresenti pa malo amalowa m'malo. Simukusowa kupereka nkhani yachisoni ngakhale kuti Brown akuti mwayiwu, chifukwa lipoti la kafukufuku wa Lyra kuyambira 2009 linanena kuti 50 peresenti ya iwo amene anayesa maulendo ogulitsira malonda omwe amadzaza makina osindikizira osindikizira anali "osakhutitsidwa kwambiri "ndi zochitika (osachepera 30 peresenti" anali okhutira kwambiri ").
Browns imanena kuti zimatenga HP pafupifupi zaka zitatu kapena zisanu kuti apange karalasi yatsopano, yomwe ili ndi zikwi 1,000 zomwe zimamangidwa ndi kutayidwa panjira. Chifukwa chake pali zambiri kuti zithandizire zosowa zosiyana siyana za ogula; ndipo kusintha chimodzi mwa zinthu khumi kapena zingapo zitha kusakaniza njira yatsopano yokhala yodalirika ndi yokhazikika. "Pali zambiri ku inki kuposa madzi ndi dawuni," akutero, ndipo popeza mawonekedwe awo ali ndi malonda, makampani omwe amapanga refills mosakayikira sakugwiritsa ntchito mawonekedwe omwewo. Izi zingabweretse mapepala otchinga kapena ntchito yosakhulupirika.
