No chip resets at all! The only issue with 3rd party filament is that there's no obvious spot to place the spool in the unit. We ended up making some basic spool holders to sit next to the machine.
The Davinci 1.0A machine does require an EEPROM chip made by Microchip - assembled onto a small PC-board which the end user must install into the plastic cartridge dispenser. The end user must remove the current EEPROM chip PC-board and replace it with a new one which is supposed to come with a replacement role of filament. I happen to have the 1.0A machine - and at this point in time Davinci is no longer manufacturing machines. And anyone with the 1.0A machine trying to obtain filament with the proper EEPROM chip will either be scalped by Ebay sellers - or not have filament to print with. Divinchi also has a different chip verification design for later model printers - and that chip appears to be an RFI technology and it located on a thin sticker which is stuck to the inside of the real. Apparently the newer machines have some kind of RFI reader on the inside of the spool of filament to read that chip. But that does not work with the older 1.0A machines. So it appears anyone who has the 1.0A machine is SOL
Thank you , your channel is a hidden treasure
Thanks Izen - sorry I missed this comment! I used this in my classes when I used to teach, so I'm happy they're still helpful 👍
Dude thanks so much
can be used any filament without chip reset?
