Chip resetters & ink level resetting
Majority of today's ink printers come with an ink level chip - attached to each ink tank. The chips collect and store ink level information for each ink tank and supply this data to the ink level monitor (ink gauge). When an ink tank is close to empty, the printer displays "out of ink" message...and stops printing.
Ok, this may seem like a good thing. It's handy to know how much ink you have left and for the printer to stop and warn you, before it runs out of ink. True...but what if you want to refill the ink cartridge(s)?
While many printers can be forced to print again - by overriding the ink monitor, some will simply stop, present an error message and refuse to work - until the offending ink tank is replaced.
What can you do about the chips ?
How the ink level monitoring is achieved, how the information is stored, how it affects you and what you can do about it...depends on what printer make and model you use and what is currently available for it.

If you can't find the information (for your printer model) on these pages, please contact us. It is difficult to keep the info up to date, as every new model is slightly different from the last one and a chip re-setter that works today, will not necessarily reset a printer released next week. |
