| Dec 6, 2017 at 19:09 | comment | added | music2myear | What is the context of this question? Are you trying to reverse engineer an ink cartridge or use cartridges that look similar but are marketed for a different printer? Further, the question isn't really answerable. Canon controls the chip and has probably not published any specific information about it. Additionally, all that you normally see in a chip is the contacts, making that part of your argument irrelevant. | |

Although the supplier says the chips are specific to the ink color, the supplied pieces all seem to be physically the same, to be only contacts and are quite simple. Here is a picture of a typical 'chip'. Are these just contacts to enable the counter for each color or is it plausible that these are actually coded with some information? | |
