Important Product Information

Earlier this week a major printer manufacturer released an automatic update or change to the firmware inside particular printers. This change has resulted in the following cartridges being recognised as 'damaged or not recognised' in those printers. The truth of the matter is that these cartridges may no longer work in the impacted printer.

It's important to remember that this is not a fault with the product itself but a change from the printer manufacturer that has made the chip not workable. We have removed all stock for sale and we recommend you do the same until a solution is found. This is not just related to 'Ausjet' but it is a worldwide problem.

Your only working immediate solution we are aware of is to use the genuine cartridge. We will keep you updated and advise of return or replacement details as soon as possible.

Latest information on the HP printer update causing failures of aftermarket chips (Continued from 13/09/16)

The chip manufacturer who supplies the chips for our Ausjet remanufactured and compatible inkjet cartridges has released the following information. As this chip manufacturer supplies to the majority of the market you can expect the following data to be relevant not just with our products but generally across the industry.

This test was conducted yesterday after the change was released by HP.
 
Printers Ink Model Chip Test Result
HP Officejet Pro 8100/8600/8600/ 251dw/276dw HP 950/951 OK
HP Officejet Pro 8610/8615/8620/8625/8630/8640/8660 HP 950/951 FAILED
HP Officejet Pro
x576dw/x476dn/x551dw/x451dw/x451dn/x476dw
HP 970/971 FAILED
HP Officejet 6830 HP 934/935 FAILED

This above information is relevant to the following products :
 
Ausjet Remanufactured HP950 / 951 Series
Premium and 5 Star Ausjet Professional Colour HP950/951 Series
Premium and 5 Star Ausjet Professional Colour HP934/935 Series
Premium and 5 Star Ausjet Professional Colour HP970/971 Series

Important Notes :

1) The printer needs to be connected to the internet or via a computer connected to the internet directly for this update to happen.
2) Even if the automatic update function was turned off it seems this did not prevent the update from happening on many models.

Additional Notes regarding the HP950/951 934/935 970/971 Ausjet Chips.

The chips we supply for remanufacturing cartridges is still under testing. We will keep you updated with the results as soon as we here more.

Important :
To assist the chip manufacturers with solving this issue, we still need to collect printer models, serial numbers and firmware versions if at all possible from impacted printers.

Change to HP Printers (firmware) causing failure of aftermarket cartridges & chips

It appears overnight in Australia and New Zealand, a change to various HP printers has resulted in aftermarket cartridges not been recognised or shown as damaged . At this stage we do not know the full extent with regards to our cartridges and or/chips or to the wider industry as a whole.

Cartridges affected :

HP 950 / 951 Series
HP 934 / 934 Series

Printers known so far :
8610, 8620

This may be a time based firmware change or possibly an automatic update for those printers that have not been updated previously. Or maybe a new firmware version?

We are in the process of gathering information. If you come across this problem with any of your customers can you please collect the printer model, the serial number which is located at the back of the printer and the firmware version.

This information will assist us and the chip manufacturers to quickly make a decision on what's the best course of action.

We will keep you updated as soon as we know more!
