Hi ! For making a quality check of print with KYOCERA: Can I swap sets of all 4 cartridges that are filled to various degrees in this printer without getting into trouble? Let’s say Original 6-20%, Refill A (100%) Refill B (50-60%), all cartridges fitted with their chips respectively. Will the counters in the chips keep track correctly, or will a 100% cartridge suddenly show „replacement“ because of the swapping? Thanks for your great video that does not leave one question open. One think to ad maybe: My refill supplier told me not to mix different brands of toner, so emptying of toner compartment and not only of waste, would be a good idea.

You can swap them withot trouble!

[@VentasKronadico]

Que es ese polvo azul que le saca al cartucho??

[@GIMIKBG]

This is the waste toner.

[@JannekKn]

hi, from where do you get the new chip to replace? Any recomendations for the powder inside those cartridges, or just get anything?

[@GIMIKBG]

Hello! the use of a chip in this cartridge is optional. I get them from a local supplier, and I don't know the manufacturer's name. The toner I use is integral.

[@JannekKn]

thanks a lot! do i should just leave the old original chip on?@@GIMIKBG

Hallo, apakah setiap catridge itu juga tempat limbah tonernya ?

[@GIMIKBG]

Yes, it is!

[@rijlanlovepet2793]

Thank you

[@shevek9505]

Hi Overthere, great video but how do you get the original plug off? And are you reusing the original plug to seal the cartridge or is this a separate brand? Where would I get those? Thx in advance

[@GIMIKBG]

When the toner cartridge is original, I use a soldering iron to drill a hole. When I am ready with the filling, I close the hole with warm silicone.

[@shevek9505]

@@GIMIKBG Yeah have heard this before, but that's not how it's done in the video? There's a plug used at the top and I thought what a great idea this is :-) One other thing though: Some other guy mentioned to me that the lower part of the cartridge is for tonerwaste and burned toner, so he recommended emptying it in the refillprocess too.

[@GIMIKBG]

Yes, it must be emptying!

[@shevek9505]

Sorry, I missed that you're already doin' this in the first part of your vid. I thougth you just emptied the upper part.

[@GIMIKBG]

No problem! Its OK. :))

[@sandraz5598]

Y el chip como se cambia ?🤔

[@GIMIKBG]

It is simply glued to the toner cartridge. You remove the old one and glue the new one. Thanks for your comment!
