Gluing a Cartridge Chip On

Gluing a Cartridge Chip On

2003-12-18 by Tom Husband

I just received a few empty carts from MIS for my 1280.  The chip on 
one of the color carts won't stay on.  Tip it down and it falls off.  
Can I put a dab of hot glue on the back and stick it on without 
damaging it?  Somewhere I think I read that it's OK to do.

Thanks,

Tom

Tom,

Go to the MIS pages and they show how to fix this.
