Well, the difference lies in the design of this two machineries. In a word,pump are designed only to pump or transfer fluid(gas or liquid).On the other hand,compressor compresses the fluid and then transfer it.
So,we can use any type of incompressible fluid in pump.Pump will only transfer them from one place to another.It wont compress it.
On the other hand,compresssor will try to compress anything given in it.So if we use any incompressible fluid in it,compressor wont be able to handle it and simply it will be damaged.So, in any compressor operation entrance of compressible liquid is highly monitored and various steps are taken
