  15. Refugee says:

    HP F4280
    The colour caretidge went from half full to empty while printing a page that had a small image and text. These chips are unreliable and reseting looks like it is needed badly.
    We need the pin connections then i will be able to work out the sequence for the 300 ones…

  17. mu1der says:

    I’m also desperately trying to find a way of resetting the HP 300 cartridge, didn’t find out about this problem with the D1660’s firmware remembering individual cartridge serial numbers until after I bought it. It’s sooo frustrating have a cartridge that I have refilled and has plenty of ink not work just because HP are a bunch of greedy b*st*rds, there should be laws against this kind of stuff what a waste of resources!

    Anyway I hope some one can figure out a solution to this as I can’t find one anywhere.
