How to restore the chips found inside Canon ink cartridges

Canon ink cartridges tends to use small ink cartridges that have chips installed in order to guarantee the best functioning possible. However, the Canon chip is also responsible for monitoring ink usage on any printer letting the user know when to change an ink cartridge. This chip is also meant to keep us from refilling our ink cartridges and buying new ones.

Our printers could ask for new ink cartridges when the ones installed are more than half full, so we will need to restart our printer to get it to use the ink inside the cartridges that have already been installed.

Now that we’ve achieved restoring these ink cartridges, we can push our cartridges to the limit, whether to refill them or to get the amount of ink we deserve.
