English term or phrase: manufacturer
_2 New Cartridge Made by Another Manufacturer

Currently translated as:
_2 Bagong Kartutso na Gawa ng Ibang _Manlilikha_

But I don't see "manlilikha" in my dictionary, but "pabricante," "tagayari," "tagagawa" -- what is/are the term(s) most used? Thanks!

Explanation:
Again, we have this issue about to be "natural, native-sounding" or "as "tagalog as possible" in our translation. If we think about the fact that this is a survey for printers, target audience must be very familiar with the terms in their english form.

Example sentence(s):
  • _2 bagong mga cartridge na ginawa ng ibang kumpanya - OR-
  • _2 bagong mga cartridge na may ibang tatak
