The HP-4100 was the first HP black toner cartridge
to use an ARD. Unlike other chips, these only
monitor usage not page counts. Each chip also has
its own serial number which in effect gives the
cartridge a serial number. After the OEM toner has
been used up, the “toner low reached” code will be
set to YES on the cartridge chip. Even after the
cartridge is refilled, the printer display will still
show “Toner Low” for the supplies status section of
the menu. The main display will then show “Non HP
Toner cartridge”. If the chip is removed, the toner
low sensors will be disabled, and will not work again
until a new HP cartridge is installed. Further testing
on this is being conducted. Another possible use of
this chip is when warranty repairs are needed. The
machine will have a complete history of all the HP
and non-HP cartridges used! Replacement chips are
available.
