Printer Cartridge Hack Saves you Cash
A dirt simple print cartridge trick will allow you to get every last drop from your so-called “empty” cartridges. It’s so simple, your grandma could do it – All you have to do is press a button on the tiny circuit boards which resets each cartridge. This resets the cartridge memory enabling you to fully drain each one, saving you cash!
Fantastic, Simple Hacks:

Its not a button, its just a plastic support to hold on the chip housing

This is fake there are no buttons on inkjet cartridges. The chip in the cartridge can not be reset, but some inkjet printers can be programed to ignore the cartridge chip.

This is not recommended… that ink is there for a purpose: the printer head cant get without ink at any moment… it will be damaged if air comes inside it when it tries to print something…

Looks fake to me.
The print was breaking up so the ink must have been low regardless of what the ‘memory’ thought. Resetting the ‘memory’ wont magic up some ink from somewhere.

Obviously fake. You can’t reset a circuit that doesn’t have power.
