    [Misc] Bizhub C454 Toner issue

    Hi there guys I live outside the US. By mistake, I've bought the TN514 toner set instead of the 512 toner set I realise the bottles are the same etc
    it's just the head of the toner cartridge are different.
    Is there anyway of swapping the head and chip around so I'm able to finish the job we are running?

    Wish i was living outside of South-Africa by mistake...

    You should be able to pop the top off and then just move the unused chip over to the old top. Super glue or something.
    The toner is the same stuff.
    Whatever

        And i've corrected the by mistake part, there was to be a comma there.

          You know the difference between the Proteas and a samosas?

          Samosas can give you runs...


          Don't think you need the chip, but change them any way to do a "new article detection" to reset the toner level indicator and what ever else.

          The chip would be the same. Does the TN-514 toners have chips on them. Cant remember right now?



          PS. the Proteas would be better of playing soccer...
          Whatever

            Easier to just cut the fins on the wrong toner so it fits and swap the chip.

              Hey man thanks
              yeah I just pried off the covers for the toner did the switch put it in and the machine picked it up as being full.
              I didn't have to change the chip. (thought I would cause thought the chip would store the print count) but it's showing up the black as being full and was able to continue printing
              Thanks much for the help.
              I now have to do it four more times for the MYC that came as part of the pack.

              Well i don't want the runs so lol
              Seeing England beat the Afghans now.
              Will be an interesting WC I think. England should be able to win being the #1 ranked team and all.
