I recently purchased a refill kit for an okidata 5150 (from inkfilling.com). I refilled it easily enough but I cannot get the printer to reset.
What should I do?

Okidata is making their newer C5150 machines a little differently and making it even more difficuly to overcome the "toner empty" signal. We do not yet know of a solution to reset the newer C5150 STARTER cartridges, however the C5150 REPLACMENT cartridges can be successfully refilled and reset using some reset instructions that are included with Uni-Kit refill kits. The C5100 series starter cartridges do not seem to give the problems that the C5150 starters do.
So in summary: C5100 starter AND replacement can be reset (see reset instructions from Uni-Kit). Newer C5150 starter can NOT be reset at this time, but C5150 replacement cartridges CAN be reset. If you have C5150, buy yourself some replacement cartridges and when those empty you can refill and reset them successfully. _________________ InkGuy

| Can you still print if you've refilled and still get the toner empty signal? Or does printing completely stop. |

if you refill STARTER cartridge it will completely stop.
if you refill non-starter, it will allow u to continue to print _________________ InkGuy
