Questions About Our Canon Pixma Chip Resetters

Here are some questions asked by customers, if you do not find your answer here, please email us and we will promptly answer.


Can I use Canon original ink cartridges as well as non-oem, re-manufactured or other compatible cartridges with a Chip Resetter simultaneously?

Answer: Yes, original and compatible cartridges can be used in any combination. However, some compatible cartridges have "one time" only chips, so they cannot be reset. Since we cannot know which you have, we recommend you ask your retailer if the chip is resettable before you purchase frm them. Our resetters will reset any resettable chip.

Also make sure you have the correct resetter for the chip series you have in your printer. You can see the chip series number on the top of each cartridge.


Does the product come with easy to read instructions?

Answer: Yes. You can visit our blog and watch a short video on how to use our resetter. Please go to this link and scroll down. You will see it on the right. inkjetrest.blogspot.com. We will soon have a video page on this site with all kinds of great information.

Will the cartridges be emptied completely or – like with other systems – will a certain amount of ink remain in the tank that I have to discard?

Answer: Yes, completely. The cartridges will be completely emptied, exactly like the original cartridges.



Do I need a different chip for each cartridge?

Answer: Yes,
 you need an original Canon chip for every different color cartridge. The chips can be new or used, or still on the original Canon cartridges. (Each color cartridge has a color specific chip that your printer and computer will identify, so make sure not to mix up the chips. Always do one color at a tie to make sure you get it right.)


Do I have to change the settings of my printer or my printer software (printer drivers)

Answer: No. All settings remain unchanged.

Will using this Chip Resetter effect my printer's warranty?

Answer: No. 
Refilling your inkjet cartridge does not tamper with your printer in any way, and therefore does not effect your warranty. Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Improvement Act, the consumer is allowed the right to choose any consumable they desire for their printer, and allowed to make any repairs to the printer cartridge they deem necessary. This allows for the use of refill kits and compatible cartridges



Is the system compatible with Windows Vista or Windows 7?

Answer: Yes.
 Our chip resetter will work with all versions of Windows, all operating systems including MAC OS.


I'm considering buying a Canon Pixma MP520, which uses PGI 5BK and the CLI-8 inks. What exactly do I need do to reset the chip? 

Answer: This resetter is really easy to use. If you have an original Canon Cartridge with the chip still attached, you simply place the cartridge with the chip facing bottom (like when you put it into your printer) and press it into place. The unit will flash a steady led light when the chip has been reset - it takes about 5 seconds. You do exactly the same thing if you have a remanufactured or compatible cart which you have attached a Canon OEM chip to. View the video here


Is there a limited number of times that I can reset each tank? On my old Canon I refilled indefinitely but I realize they did not have the chip.

Answer:   There is no limit as to how many times you can reset the chip on any tank.

Refilling a cartridge is only limited to the condition of the tank. I have spoken to some people who have had their Canon printers for years and still continue to refill the original ink cartridges.

As you know, it is only recently that Canon has added chips to their printers, so that is why a resetter now is important to have. Especially if you have a multifunction printer which includes a fax machine, because it will not print out the faxes automatically if the chip in your cartridge has not been reset.
