    • The EDPROM can be reprogrammed thanks to an Arduino UNO card, for instance.

    • Prepare an Arduino UNO card with the following pins:

    • Pin 1 (SCL) connected to A5

    • Pin 2 (SDA) connected to A4

    • Pin 3 (5V) connected to the 5V port on the Arduino card

    • Pin 4 (GND) connected to GND on the Arduino card.

  3. How to reset the print counter to zero, Programming: step 3, image 1 of 1
    • Download the ICI program file

    • Start Arduino and open the .ino file

    • Upload the program to the Arduino Uno board

    • Launch the serial monitor via the button at the top right

    • Make contact on the cartridge card. The 4 contacts need to work well at the same time

    • Follow the instructions to reprogram the memory according to the correct color (Black, Cyan, Magenta, Yellow)
