Cartridge compatibility
Cartridge compatibility indicates which types of cartridge the machine can work with, based on the attachment system and dimensions. Many manufacturers declare compatibility with «standard» cartridges or with specific standards, but the term has no single definition.
Why it matters: It is an important specification to check before combining machines and cartridges from different brands. The information comes from the manufacturer.
