RE: [Digital BW] R220 cartridge woes

The suppliers of chips to the third-party re-sellers have been sending some
incorrectly labeled products.  Use the OEM chip until MIS replaces the bad
chip with a correct one.  To use the OEM chip, you'll need a chip re-setter,
which is a cheap item.  Use a sharp knife to shave off the plastic pins that
hold the chip onto the OEM cart.  It should fit the MIS cart easily.  I use
a 1/8" wide strip of tape across the top of the chip and sides of the cart
to hold the chip on.
