This maybe helpful

I've posted it as suitable for Xerox and Dell, but really any item (Cartridge or drum) that has a chip or reprogramable eeprom and be rechipped or reprogrammed.

Firstly
It's also handy to have a set of new / unused chips so that you can read the "full" data.
I have the bin dumps for the Xerox 6130 and 6140, if these are useful

I made this little device, (See links to pictures below) it will allow you to re-chip or re-program the eepron that is embedded in the PCB on most toner cartridges and drums.
See this link for pictures.
Picasa Web Albums - mp4wizzard - reader pictures
This device also works for several other similar cartridges including DELL 1320

It's also useful to know which pins are
GND
VCC
SCL and
SDA
I'll try and help if anyone needs this info........... but no promises

This is where you can buy the basic unit.......... I've put mit in a little box for protection

USB 25xxx SPI Bus E-Eprom programmer - Microchip, ATMEL on eBay (end time 02-Feb-10 09:41:48 GMT)

Before you ask, he's not a relative, but a very helpful chap.............. speaks very good English and he comes highly recommended.
Ask him nicely and he will send spare connectors and USB leads...... free
I had to make a recepticle to "plug" the chip into, not pretty as you can see from the pictures, but it works.

You will also need a small piece of software to read and write the hex data
The software can be found here............ it's been tested by me and is perfectly safe and easy to use.

and do these objects work for resetting the chips of the xerox dc440? how much would it come me to cost the whole purchase?

Honest answer............. I'm not sure if they will work as I do not have a dc440 or worked on one.
Can you send me a picture of the chip that you would like to reset / reprogram?
I should be able to tell you from a picture
