Re: [Digital BW] Need for a chip resetter for 1400/1430 carts

2014-10-03 by Steve Taylor

The chips only reset themselves if they are taken out and put back into  
the printer when they are indicating empty or nearly empty. If you take  
out an ink cartridge that is half full, fill it up, and then put it back  
into the printer, it will still register half full. That is why you need  
to manually reset it.
