*The chip resetters require power via a USB cable. Chip resetters work for a pre-determined number of resets only, once that number has been exceeded a new chip resetters would need to be purchased.
These cartridges utilise single use chips which can be reset using the rihac chip resetter. These chips are fitted with a non-user replaceable battery. Once this battery is dead (typically 6-12 months) the chip will need to be replaced (replacement chips available for puchase here). Currently there is only one chip manufacturer in the world and the only alternative is to use the OEM Brother chips. The OEM chips can be removed from the genuine cartridges and do not have a battery.
