Cartridge/Machine Reset Guide Version 16
Now with HP & Lexmark common chip error codes!
By Mike Josiah
Welcome to the 16th version of our Reset Guide!
This guide continues to expand (sometimes on a
daily basis), and it will continue to expand for the
for-seeable future. Although most machines these
days are chip based, some still use the machine
menu to reset the counter. As for the chip based
machines, it basically comes down to if the chip
stops that cartridge from printing or allows the
cartridge to print but disables the toner low circuitry.
We have tried to include this information where ever
possible. New in this version, we have also included
common chip error codes and their explanations.
Sometimes what is perceived to be a chip error can
be something else. Codes for HP and Lexmark
machines have been included. Rather than copy
them for every HP and Lexmark engine, we have
included a generic listing at the beginning of both
the HP and Lexmark section. Only if there is a
specific machine error code will there be anything
under the actual engine.
If you have information not listed here, please
contact Mike Josiah at
mjosiah@summitechnologies.com so it can be
included in the next version.
Brother HL-630 OPC
Brother Cartridge
Part #DR-100

This cartridge does not use any type of reset
procedure. These cartridges according to the Brother
manual should be replaced whenever the copy
quality deteriorates. Since this could occur almost at
any time, there is no need to have a counter. We only
included it here because all of the other Brother
engines DO have some sort of reset procedure.

Canon LBP-CX
HP Cartridge
Part # (92285A)
OEM Stated Yield: 2,500
These cartridges have a color wheel that indicates
the approximate amount of toner left in the cartridge.
This wheel does not actually stop the machine it
only gives the user a visual indication. The wheel
Assy. consists of a small gear train that drives a
geared color wheel. The gear assembly is calibrated
for 5% pages, so it is very possible that you have an
empty cartridge with a green wheel showing, or a
half full cartridge with a red wheel showing. It all
depends on how much toner is used per page.
To reset the counter, remove the clear cover from the
counter by releasing the 4 tabs. Carefully remove the
small gear next to the color wheel and turn the wheel
so that the notched area is up. Insert the small gear
so that the teeth of both the small gear and the wheel
just start to engage. Carefully snap the cover back
on. If you slip and the small gears jump out of place,
just alternate them from the middle to one side. The
opposite side is empty. It doesn’t matter which side
you choose.

Canon PC-Mini
Canon Cartridge
Part # (A-30)
OEM Stated Yield: 3,000
These cartridges have a color wheel that indicates
the approximate amount of toner left in the cartridge.
This wheel does not actually stop the machine it
only gives the user a visual indication. The wheel
Assy. consists of a small gear train that drives a
geared color wheel. The gear assembly is calibrated
5
for 5% pages, so it is very possible that you have an
empty cartridge with a green wheel showing, or a
half full cartridge with a red wheel showing. It all
depends on how much toner is used per page.
To reset the counter, grasp the color wheel in your
right hand, the gear assembly in your left. While
bending the wheel down, turn the wheel away from
you until it stops. You will hear a slight grinding.
That is fine as long as the wheel turns fairly easily. If
the wheel is hard to turn, you are not bending the
wheel down far enough and may damage the gears.
This can also be done by removing the cover,
removing the gear next to the wheel, and resetting
the wheel gear
Canon PC-850
Canon Cartridge
Part # F100 (F41-9921)
OEM Stated Yield: 10,000
If the "Replace Cartridge" light is still lit in the
display after replacing the cartridge, the customer
can follow the steps below to reset the copier. This
procedure should be done every time the cartridge is
replaced:
Hold down the "A" (Automatic Exposure) key for
approximately four (4) seconds or longer.
After approximately four (4) seconds have elapsed,
"UC" appears in the Copy quantity/Copy ratio
display. Press the "Start" key. "UC" will flash for
about 20 seconds in the Copy quantity/Copy ratio
display. The copier will automatically perform a
toner distribution operation, and then you will return
to the normal copying mode.
NOTE: - Be sure to press the "A" key after
replacing each cartridge. If you do not, your first
few copies will not be clear copy images or the
Replace Cartridge indicator may light. If either of
these two problems occurs, press the main unit
power switch to OFF and then to ON again.
Afterwards, perform the above steps.
If copies are too dark or too light after you have
replaced the cartridge, open the front door and adjust
the copy exposure using the exposure re-calibration
slide control switch.
DEX 625 (Samsung SF-5500)
Dex Cartridge
Part # 6950
OEM Stated Yield: 12,000
This cartridge is actually two separate cartridges, a
toner and a drum cartridge. They are sold as one unit
under part # 6950.
NOTE: It is very easy to ruin the sensor on these
cartridges when cleaning. They are very static
sensitive. We highly recommend that the sensor be
removed before cleaning and replaced before the
cartridge is filled. (There is a hole in the chamber
that will leak if not replaced.
There are two reset procedures that must be followed
in order to have this cartridge operate properly. On
the drum unit there is a glass fuse that must be
replaced. The fuse is a 125V,100mA, 5x20mm fast
acting glass type. Once the cartridge(s) have been
installed, you must perform the toner initialization.
Press FUNCTION, 7, YES, NO, YES, YES. The
machine is reset!

OPC Cartridge
HP OPC Part # C4195A
OEM Stated Yield: 25,000
These cartridges have an ARD installed on the left
side of the cartridge. The chip is actually just an IC
plugged into a socket on the back of the electrical
connector, which can easily be changed. It would
seem that HP or Canon has plans to recycle these
cartridges. Even though they look the same, the
programming on these chips is different from the
HP-8500.
New reset chips are now available to reset these
cartridges. Drums and chips should be sold as a set
as the chip contains information about the drum
sensitivity. These cartridges also have windows that
work with an optical sensor inside the printer that
determines if the waste chamber is full or not. It is
more than likely that if the waste chamber fills up,
the machine will shut down. We are not sure if the
cartridge waste chamber is cleaned out, it will
continue to run until the chip finishes its page count.
The Canon version of this printer is the CLBP460PS. The chip also contains information on the
characteristics of the drum that is used during the
calibration sequence.
