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.
Brother HL-720 OPC
Brother Cartridge
Part #DR-200
OEM Stated Yield: 20,000
New drum cartridges come with a clear “Starter
Sheet” installed inside the cartridge. When the
cartridge is installed and the cover closed, the printer
will eject the sheet and at the same time, reset the
drum counter. This sheet is also present in the DR-
300 cartridges. Replacement sheets are now
available.
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
OEM Stated Yield: 11-15,000
New drum cartridges come with a clear “Starter
Sheet” installed inside the cartridge. Install the
cartridge but keep the cover open. Press the
“CLEAR” button to show the drum status. The
display will show REPLACE DRUM? 1. YES 2. NO
Press “1” on the telephone keypad. The counter is
reset! Replacement sheets are now available.
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.

that has to be reset. These cartridges are still being
investigated.

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.

The drum unit for these cartridges is rated for 40,000
pages. The machine will show “Replace Drum” at

same chip is used, the decision must be made by the
machine not the cartridge.

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.
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.
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
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

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.

power switch to OFF and then to ON again.
Afterwards, perform the above steps.
With the printer off, press and hold the reset button
located next to the power cord. While still holding
the reset button in, turn the power on. The reset
procedure is the same for both the toner and drum

There are a few different reset procedures for the
drum units, all dependant on the machine. All are
done either by the Printer menu, or through the
printer driver:
These cartridges use a chip, but it is not the “Killer
type” These chips monitor the “Toner Low” as well
as tell the machine the brand of cartridge it is. So far
we have seen Lexmark, Epson, and IBM machines
using these cartridges. The chips for each brand are
different. Initial tests show that the chip can be re-
used for at least one cycle with no issues. Testing is
still ongoing.

On the gear side of the cartridge there is a large
white gear with a floating tab mechanism that has
two notches in it. For the machine to accept the
cartridge as new, the tab must be set so that the
outermost notch is engaged. Be careful to reset this
tab after testing, as it will automatically move to the
inner notch every time the cartridge is installed. If
the tab is left in this position, the machine will show
change cartridge when the cartridge is installed.

Okidata over the years has released a lot of

Unfortunately almost all of them require a different
reset procedure. In fact even some of the machines
that use the same engine have different reset
procedures! The following procedures are grouped
by the Engine, (underlined), and then by the machine
model number/s. The machine model numbers are
also in a slightly smaller point size. The first “OL”

actual reset procedure is for the OL-800 series only,

use different engines, but use the same reset

The reset gear in the Ricoh Aficio 200 OPC
cartridge has a different purpose than most reset
mechanisms. Most resets set the cartridge page count
back to zero. In the Aficio 200, it lets the machine
know that a new cartridge has been installed. The
machine then takes readings from its sensors to
measure the charge of the developer and drum. From
those readings it sets up the density for that drum
unit.

If the gear is not reset, the machine will continue to
think the old cartridge is installed, and use the old
settings. This usually causes either light prints, or
backgrounding.
It is also important to note that the replacement
aftermarket developer was designed to work with the
replacement drum as a matched system. In our tests,
the OEM drum will not last another cycle.

Both of these cartridges use different items to reset

The standard AL-100TD, and 6R914 cartridges are
not interchangeable. They have Oblong tabs on the
backside of the cartridges that are in different
locations. These tabs block the use of one brand in
the others machine. They can be made to be
interchangeable by cutting off the tabs, and sealing
up the hole. See our cartridge recycling instructions
for detailed information. These cartridges also do not
have any type of reset. There is a sensor inside the
cartridge that measures the mixture of toner to
developer. As long as there is enough toner for a
good mixture level, the toner lamp will stay off.
There are no page counters or “Killer Chips” for
these cartridges.
Drum Cartridge: This cartridge uses a fuse to reset
the printer. The fuse is located on the gear side of the
cartridge. Starter cartridges do not have a fuse, but
the holder is there. The fuse must be replaced each
cycle. The fuse is a 250V 5 x 20mm 63mA fuse.
Make sure you have the correct fuse or printer

There are other versions of these cartridges however
that do have “Killer Chips”. The following are the

pages. These cartridges are designed to be recycled
by Sharp authorized dealers. As such, replacement
chips are available from authorized Sharp dealers,
and now generic chips are also available. Since the
chip shuts down the cartridge at 10,000 pages, you
can recycle the cartridge 2-3 times with the same
chip with out any problems. However, even if you
just recycled the cartridge, once the page count
reaches 10,000, you will need to replace the chip. To
make matters even more confusing, it seems that
non-network (Copier Only) machines do not need
the chip installed at all! We think (but have not yet
been able to confirm), that replacing the chip every
cycle will prevent the machine from shutting down.
That is an increase in cost, but that way you don’t
have to track the usage on your customer’s machine,
or for that matter, the type of machine they have.
The chip is installed in the back of the connector on
the cartridge.

machine down right away. This seems to work the
same as the Sharp AR-150; it can be recycled 2-3
times before the chip shuts the cartridge down.
Replacement chips for these cartridges are now

that the “Oblong Tab” on the back of the cartridge
has it’s own unique location. In addition to the tab,
the Waste Chamber is also different. It has a
different shape, and is held on by one screw at the
top, and a plastic tab on the bottom. The chip is
installed in the back of the connector on the
cartridge.
Both of the above cartridges are different, and not
interchangeable but the reset procedures are the
same. (These procedures are the same for the XC-
800/Z-835 copier OPC cartridges). These cartridges
are the most popular. There are also other cartridges
that use the same supplies, but are physically
different. There are tabs on the top of the cartridge
that block installation into another brand copier.
These tabs are different for each cartridge type.

If the cartridges your machine needs is not available,
you can change what type of cartridge the machine
will accept by doing the following. Enter the
diagnostics mode as in above. Enter “406 “ and press
Print. Turn off the power and install the correct
cartridge. The machine will now look for that type of
cartridge from now on. Only do this if you are sure
that you will be supplying the cartridges for this
machine. If the customer goes out and purchases the
“correct” cartridge that was made for his machine, it
will no longer work until the above procedure is run
again.

This engine has more non-interchangeable cartridges
than any engine I have ever seen. All of them use an
"ARD" that is built into the connector. Almost every
type of cartridge has it's own individual ARD. Since
every individual cartridge has it’s own chip, it is
imperative that you have the OEM cartridge part
number when ordering the chips! The reset boards
are now available with the plastic housing so that
soldering the chip in is no longer necessary. There
are also services where you can have the old chip
reset. There are still cartridges that do not have
replacement chips available yet. These are mainly
international, but not all.

There are many different cartridges that use different
connectors/chips for these machines. A list of them
is as follows:

E310/312 NOTE: Lexmark has replaced the
12A2202 (5k) cartridge with the 13T0101 (6k)
cartridge. The new cartridge works in both
machines.
Each cartridge type is for a different machine. When
ordering the replacement chip, make sure you know
the correct cartridge part number that your
customer’s machine calls for. The chips are not
interchangeable.
When recycling these cartridges the fuse must be
replaced in the Xerox cartridges. The Lexmark
cartridges have a plastic dummy fuse in it. There has
been some conflicting information on if the fuse
should be replaced or not, the following should help
to clear it up. If the machine says toner low and the

cartridge is changed. A new fuse is not needed.
However if the machine says change cartridge, the
fuse is needed. Since you really have no way to
know the state of your customer’s machine, we
recommend that the fuse be replaced each cycle.
These fuses are very inexpensive, and this way you
have no worries! Starter cartridges can come with
plastic dummy fuses. Those fuses must be replaced
with a real fuse. The fuse is a 125V, 100mA,
5x20mm fast acting glass type.
This cartridge uses an optical reset similar to the
Panasonic 4410. The waste chamber must be
spotless, and the float in the down position. There is
a clear plastic bubble on top of the cartridge. This is
what the sensor looks at and it must be spotless! The
J7 code is triggered when the waste chamber fills up
and moves the float into the bubble, interrupting the
optical sensor.

There are a variety of cartridges now available for
these machines. They all use the same supplies.

(Missing Internal Counter), 13R13(RX),
13R18(XLA), 13R505 (XCL).
The 5334 cartridges appear similar but are different.
They still use the same supplies to recycle, but they
do not have a reset counter installed inside. They
also have an extra tab on the back side of the
cartridge that stops the cartridge from being installed
completely in a 5018 machine. The cartridges used
in these machines are the 13R67 (US), 13R68
(RX/XL), 13R69 (XLA), 13R520 (XCL). These
machines are basically set up to “run for
life” in other words, the drum cartridge is run until
there is a problem. At that point another cartridge is
installed, and the machine continues to print. There
is no reset involved.
Xerox 5012/5014 OPC

A code (J2) may show on the 5624, and 5824
machines, to clear it do the following: Enter the
diagnostics by holding the ”0” while turning on the
machine. Enter “9”, PRINT, “50”, PRINT. This will
start the machine up and clear the J2 code.
There are now many different Xerox part numbers
for these cartridges. They are interchangeable, just
sold from different sources. They are 13R19 (US),
13R22, 13R24, 113R91 (retail), and 13R508.
These cartridges use a reset fuse board located inside
the connector. The connector must be un-soldered

correct connector, read the resistance between pin’s
3 & 6. 5012 connectors read 1,500 ohms, while 5011
connectors read 15,000 ohms.
Information on these machines is still a little vague
as we are still in the learning process.
The 5018 OPC cartridge must be disassembled so
that you have access to the mechanical counter. New
OEM replacement belts are now available making
any Xerox machine warranty issues hard to enforce.
Turn the cartridge so that the Counter is in front of
you. On the left side of the counter, there are two
white levers. While pressing both of the levers
down, turn the large black gear
backwards,(Clockwise). Stop when the green or
knurled section of the gear is visible through the
small hole in the cover. (You must loosely place the
cover over the Waste Chamber; the hole is located
under the J2 label. Once this gear is in position,
release both of the levers. At this point you should
not be able to turn the large black gear. If you can,
press down both levers and turn the gear one or two
more "clicks" until the gear is locked. The two
White Levers should stay flat.
