Full details

It delivers consistent, professional-grade prints with a reliable page yield, though it is exclusively formulated for blue-ink requirements, meaning it is not suitable for machines requiring different colors or specialized fluorescent inks.

FAQs

Is this ink permanent and water-resistant?

Yes, the ink is designed for postal compliance, meaning it is resistant to environmental conditions typically encountered during the shipping process.

Does this void my printer's warranty?

Using compatible cartridges should not void your machine warranty, though it is always best to check your specific service contract terms.

What is the shelf life of this cartridge?

If kept in its original sealed packaging in a climate-controlled environment, the cartridge typically remains effective for 18-24 months.

Can I use this in a Pitney Bowes DM100?

No, this specific cartridge model (797-0) is only compatible with the listed DM50, DM55, K700, and K721 series.

What should I do if the cartridge leaks?

Gently clean any excess ink from the machine's contacts with a lint-free cloth and isopropyl alcohol, then verify the cartridge is properly seated.

Troubleshooting

The machine displays an 'Ink Low' or 'Cartridge Missing' error.

Remove the cartridge, ensure the electrical contacts are clean and free of debris, then reinstall it firmly until it clicks.

Print output is faded or streaky.

Perform the 'Nozzle Cleaning' or 'Print Head Maintenance' routine through your mailing machine's settings menu.
