Or just swap the chip.  But you¹ll still have the issues of the driver only
providing the paper choices (and the related internal driver parameters) for
the ink to which the chip relates.

There is a work-around, but it's not pretty. You can take the bag out of the
PK cart, and put it into the MK cart (or vice-versa), and then use a chip
resetter so you can continue to use the old cart. I use an xacto knife to
cut the paper cover where it covers the seams, then stick the knife into the
slots in the cartridge to take the top off the cartridge. Another use of
this is that by rolling up the bag, you can get the last 30 ml of ink out of
the cartridge- but be careful not to run out of ink!

However, now you are printing with PK, but the machine thinks it's MK.
Sometimes the machine will throw a mismatch error- just hit the pause
button, and it will print.

Thanks to Walter Blackwell for this tip.
