TEC LB-1305 OPC
OEM Stated Yield: 10,000 (All) There are three major versions of these cartridges. Two use an external counter and one doesn't use one at all. The older style 1305 has no counter. The label on top of the cartridge has a place to write down the starting page count. You are supposed to keep track of the pages printed. The next version had a Black plastic counter. This counter has to be replaced every cycle. New counters are available as well as a reset service. The last version (actually the TEC- LB1321/1323) uses a Green plastic counter. This must also be replaced every cycle. No reset services are available for the green counters.
Xerox Country Codes:
Xerox lists two to three digit codes for most of their cartridges. Most of the time the cartridges are identical, but the reset chips are programmed differently. The following list is not all the country codes, just the ones we have been able to confirm. US=USA, WH = Western Hemisphere, XCL = Xerox Limited (Canada), XL = England, RX = Rank Xerox. As we are able to confirm other country codes we will list them on our web site.

To reset the counter in the DC 212/214 OPC cartridges the connector on the rear of the cartridge must be replaced. This will clear the J7 or J8 codes. J7= change copy cartridge, J8 = wrong or bad connector. There are many different cartridges that use different connectors for these machines.
