A printing cartridge for a camera that incorporates an inkjet printer includes a housing that can be engaged with the camera. An ink supply arrangement is positioned in the housing and is connectable to an ink feed arrangement of the printer to feed ink to the printer when the housing is engaged with the camera. A print media supply arrangement is positioned in the housing and incorporates a roll of print media. The housing defines an exit slot from which the print media can be fed. A print media feed arrangement is positioned in the housing and is operable to feed print media from the exit slot. An integrated authentication circuit is positioned on the housing to be queried by circuitry positioned in the inkjet printer. The authentication circuit stores data relating to at least one of the ink and the print media. |
