We all now that catridges are said to be empty when there is still ink in
them thats why one can but a chip reseter to allow us to use the ink.
My question is if one resetts and uses another the say 10% of ink left. what
happens to the next empty signal. When you ecentually replace the
catridge.Have you used up 10% of the time the computer tells you Hey empty
thus saying empty 10% sooner than would normally.
Then of course with the 2100 or in states 2200 you have 7 seperate catridges
so how does it intitially give you the empty signal.

It doesn't work that way. The printer, nor the host computer store ink
useage, only the chip on the cart does, so when you get install a new
cart, it will read the value from it.
