Cartridge

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A cartridge is a kind of box which is made for putting inside a bigger machine. The cartridge holds something that the bigger machine uses.

For example:-

  • A video game cartridge holds computer chips (for the game).
  • An ink cartridge holds ink for a printer.

A cartridge is easy to use. For example, an ink cartridge is easier to use than a bottle of ink. This is because all the ink is inside the cartridge.
