Hello MrPrintGuyDIY, I have a problem with my Lexmark CX317DN, the monitor shows that the cyan cartridge has 0 pages left, and the supplies monitor shows that the cyan cartridge is empty, even though there are many other colors and I bought another cartridge at the same time. what should I do? will it work if I replace the cartridge chip?
@ thanks for the answer, I will try to replace the chip first, if it works I will replace the cartridge, at least I know the problem! what I am worried about is I have to replace the drum 😭
@DaniChocky the problem may ne caused by a lot of reasons - defective chip, reached page counter for the cartridge, cartridge mismatch... Although there is toner in it if you have printed the pages for the capacity it will turn 0%.
DO NOT use the vacuum cleaner on the toner: its particles are so small that they cannot be held by any vacuum cleaner filter and probably even the cyclone type has a low efficiency so you end up using the vacuum cleaner as a blower, contaminating the air you breath and the cleaner itself

If you replace the chip it will work for a while but be careful because there is no much toner in the cartridge. Better replace the cartridge.

As you mentioned the the cyan cartridge shows 0 pages left, it stands for the toner cartridge
@@MrPrintGuyDIY what caused this problem? even though there is still toner in the cartridge! so that in the future I will be more careful

Hello. Tell me, why is it a powder and not a liquid? This is very strange.
The toner is powder, the ink is liquid. The laser devices work with toner and the powder is "baked" to the paper in the fuser unit.
where to get new chips
Hello friend! You can get a new chip from a local supplier or order it on internet - ebay, aliexpress, etc.
okay. i got it. thanks
Bonjour
Est il obligatoire de changer le connecteur ?
Hello friend! You have to replace the chip on the cartridge every time you refill it. Otherwise you will get an empty cartridge message.

I use specialized toner vacuum machine. And of course it's not recommended to use regular vacuum cleaner for tone refilling.
