ABSTRACT:
The ink cartridge comprises a casing closed on all sides, with a face wall having an aperture for receiving a tubular socket of the printing head. The casing contains a foam element impregnated with ink. It has locking elements for engaging arrester means of the printing head, as well as a second smaller aperture for feeding air. An elastomeric foil is provided between the face wall and the foam element, the foil having a hole smaller than the aperture and extending coaxially with the aperture. An edge zone of the smaller hole projects beyond an edge of the aperture and rests sealing against the sockets when the cartridge is inserted.
