Hewlett Packard DesignJet 5000/5500 chip decoder

Hewlett Packard DesignJet 5000/5500 original ink cartridges can not be reused because the cartridge has a "smart" intelligent chip. Chip can accurately record the ink level of the cartridges. The cost of HP original ink cartridges is almost 10 times higher than other brand ink of the market.

HP5000/5500 chip decoder was developed to solve this problem. It can intelligently decode the "smart" chips on the cartridge and make the chip able to record the ink level again. This will avoid the accident that ink be used up and damage the printer or cartridge. The cartridges which has been damaged due to "8504 replace" problem can be used again with our chip decoder (it does not include the cartridges with physical damage or appearance damage).

Installation instructions:

• Turn off the power switch of the printer (power off). Open the cover of the ink supply station on the left back of the printer, insert the chip decoder between Ink supply circuit and ink supply data line and the installation has been completed.
• Turn on the power switch of the printer (power on), the LED panel on the printer will show that the ink level is 100%. Since this chip decoder has integrated the circuit of the cartridge chips, so every time you turn on the printer system, the ink level shows 100% state; but if you use the printing system without power shut, the ink level will decrease with the ink volume during the printing, and automatically lock up until the ink level has reached 25%. Then after turn on the printer it will come back to 100%, so move in cycle.
• If the printer has equipped with Continual Ink Supply System, also need to put ink cartridges in the ink supply station (can use empty cartridge).
• If functional accident happen to occur with the decoding program, just turn off the printer. The decoder will automatically restore, after turn on the printer, the ink level shows 100% state.
• During the process, if the printer monitor shows "replace ink cartridge " "yes" "no", do not make any choice and shut down the power directly, then restart the printer.
