New HP564XL Compatible Cartridges with Chip
Recently we have released the new series of HP564XL compatible cartridges. Unfortunately we didn't have time to get the Ausjet Boxes printed yet. So our current stock is only available in a generic box.
But the great thing about these cartridges is the ink volume and ink quality. 30mls for the black cartridge and 18mls per colour and photo black. This is well and truly above the OEM ink volumes. The large black cartridge is equipped with a high grade pigment and the colours and photo black use german dyes.
During out in house testing these cartridges performed to a very high quality and were 100% reliable. It's almost important to note that even though the black cartridge holds 30mls of ink it will fit in all printers. It's not the same dimensions as that wide black HP564XL cartridge that HP released a few years back and then discontinued.
Stick on Chips PRICE REDUCTION and Installation tips!
For those remanufacturing the Canon Inkjet Printhead type cartridges we have good news for you. We have negotiated better pricing for you which means a lower price for you.
With regards to the chip installation its extremely important to clean the cartridges contacts thoroughly before installation of the chip. The chip works by making contact with the pins, it's therefore very important that these contacts are clean. Chip recognition errors and peeling of the chip can result if the contacts are not thoroughly cleaned.
We had one customer who's problems just vanished after he started cleaning the contacts with a contact cleaner and a light scourer. Chips that weren't recognising before now just worked. We would recommend using Isopropyl alcohol as its a good general contact cleaner.

HP Inkjet Printers 'Cartridge Protection'
Is the OEM trying to lock out large scale remanufacturers?
Recently it has come to our attention that HP has designed a new system to lock cartridges to a printer. Although this system only seems to be in its infancy it could cause a big problem for those incorporating swap and go systems or bulk remanufacturing operations. If you think about this logically it's a good way for the OEM to stop the collection of empties for batch filling or large scale remanufacturing.
The HP Officejet Pro 8600 cartridges uses the new 932 Black and 933 CMY individual cartridges. By default the 'cartridge protection' system is set to 'on'. When a new cartridge is installed in the printer it writes to the chip locking that cartridge to the printer. The 'cartridge protection' system can easily be turned off via the printer software. But why would the customer bother to do this? Even if the system is turned off it will not reverse a locked cartridge.
Unfortunately because its a default setting the vast majority of customers using these printers will have locked cartridges. From the customers point of view this wouldn't affect them in anyway way unless they had multiple printers that used the same cartridges.
The good news is that because the cartridge is locked to the printer it will not prevent you from remanufacturing the customers own cartridge.
HP Setup Cartridges
When you purchase a new printer that uses the HP564, 920 or 932 series cartridges. The cartridges that come in the box with the printer will be these new setup cartridges. These cartridges must be the first cartridges in the printer and are used as a way to setup accurate ink levels.
The following link provides more information of these cartridges.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02068088&cc=ad&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_r1002_auen_c-001_title_r0004
The real question that we need to ask is are these cartridges able to be remanufactured? Could they potentially be locked into a specific printer like the 'cartridge protection' system mentioned above.
So far we haven't received much feedback but it looks like they can be remanufactured without any problems.. touch wood.
One thing I do know is if you try to replace the setup cartridges before they are empty the printer will yell and scream at you. Once you put the setup cartridge back in its all happy again. So temperamental!!
If you do encounter any problems remanufacturing these starter cartridges please contact us. If a problem exists we would like to pass the word on as soon as we can!!

Lexmark introduces new Inkjet Printers and Cartridges
Lexmark has released a new range of printers featuring Vizix Pro technology. The printers are designed as business units. The individual cartridge numbers are 220XL Bk,C,M and Y and feature all pigment inks. Pigment inks have excellent highlighter and smear resistant prints that business users demands. Page yields are 2500 for the black and 1600 per colour. Which puts it in line with other recent printer releases from other manufacturers.
OEM High Volume Inkjet Printers going after the top end of town
It seems business inkjet printers are certainly hotting up, with the main selling point a much lower costs per page than colour laser printers at similar pricing point.
New Epson Printer and Cartridges in Korea and Japan
Epson has released a wide range of new printers in Korea/Japan. The new cartridge models are T1801-T1804 and T1811-T18114. The new printer models are XP30,XP102,XP202,XP205,XP302,XP402 and XP405 printers.

Brother Reset Procedure
Thank you to one of our esteemed customers who provided the following information to us. Unfortunately we can't tell you his name. It's a bit like that toothbrush adverisement where they wouldn't show us his face. Maybe he's the stig of the cartridge remanufacturing game. He does drive a red car it's no ferrari but one thing is for sure the fuel economy would be better! But all jokes aside he certainly knows his stuff!
MFC 9440 and 9840 Toner Reset (TN-155 Cartridges)
1) With power on, open the toner access main door (You will get a "door open" message in the LCD.)
2) Press the "Clear/Back" button and you will go right to the "Toner Reset Menu".
3) Using the up and down "Search" arrow buttons, you can then scroll through reset options for each of the printers [4] toner cartridges!
Code: B = Black, C = Cyan, M = Magenta, Y = Yellow
4) For each for these cartridges is the option to reset for low yield = S (small?) or High Yield = H.
5) Press OK.
6) Using the numeric keypad, select option #1 ( to reset each to the size you have installed).
7) LCD will display "Accepted"
8) Hit the "Clear/Back" button to get out of the menu, close door and the problem is finally solved.
I hope this information has been useful to you.

Technical Bulletin 18th May 2011
For those remanufacturing the HP61 and HP61XL colour cartridges it's important to note that there is two variations. The difference between these is the position of the magenta and yellow foams have been switched. Therefore you need to identify the magenta and yellow foams before starting the remanufacturing process.

About the setup cartridges that ship with the printer.
Information on expiry dates of HP inkjet cartridges and if overrides are available
On the underside of each cartridge there is an expiry date. In the past this did not lock the cartridge out once you reached this date. But we are encountering more and more reports of printers rejecting the cartridges that have reached this date.
HP has released a new cartridge design for the Hp Officejet 6700. The cartridge models are HP932 Black and HP932 cyan, magenta and yellow and come in two yields standard and XL. The cartridges are individual tanks but are a different design to the HP940 and HP564 type designs. The four inks cartridges contain pigment based inks and we are investigating what is the correct Sensient ink, the filling method and information on the chip.

Technical Bulletin 4th April 2012
All weirdness put to one side I think what is really needed is a database of troublesome firmware updates in Aus/NZ/Pacific Islands. This would need to be updated frequently by everybody. Maybe such a database already exists and I'm the only one still trying to decipher Nostradamus!
