Reset Lexmark 36 Black cartridge?

I managed to get it working, just damage the connection point (where the chip is). I used a knife to break part of the connection and now I can fill the cartridges myself for a fraction of the price :)

I have a lexmark x5650 , and belongs to the 5600 - 6600 series.
Lexmark have 2 cartridges that cannot be refilled,
NR:36 / NR:37. But i belive it can be done.
Now! i just Bought 2 cartridges NR:36A / NR37A they are identical
To the Cartridges NR:36 (Black) / NR:37 (Colour),
But the electronics in NR:36A / NR:37A will stop printer to
Recognising them when it´s empty, and you can refill with no
probs.
This really works , even that ink level monitor shows empty
in your computer and level monitor on printer.
it will still continuing printing as new.
But i hate empty monitors.
-------------------------------------------------------------
But if there is a driver that can reset the lexmark from start,
and clear memory from what it has memorised from what cartridges
it has used , it probably show the old ones as new again and the
ink level monitor will be 100%. And then it probably doesnt matter
if you use NR:36 or NR:36A because the printer will read them as
new cartridges again.
--------------------------------------------------------------
When i refill my cartridge i sure would like to have a ink level
monitor that shows me when it´s time to refill again not make a guess when it´s time to refill.
---------------------------------------------------------------
In the prog.Folders of lexmark ,you have Dll files , i opened up
1 of them and checked , this is the info you get,
(BLOCK "StringFileInfo" BLOCK "040904b0") And in system 32

lexmark printer dll files
(BLOCK "StringFileInfo" BLOCK "040904b0")
(BLOCK "StringFileInfo" BLOCK "000009B0")
VALUE "FileDescription", "Windows XP Printer Driver"
VALUE "ProductName", "Windows 2K/XP Printer Driver"
BLOCK "VarFileInfo"
VALUE "Translation", 0x0000 0x04B0
---------------------------------------------------------------

This shows how printer memorise and save into computer printer
dll files.
But if reset the printer it will erase this info and start from
beg, with new info.
---------------------------------------------------------------
There must be a reset driver to download somewhere for lexmark
printers and i hope someone has it.
It´s nothing wrong to own a lexmark printer,it´s a good quality printer.
---------------------------------------------------------------
I hope this info make new ideas for you all.
And i hope to find a reset driver , counter reset.

I have just found out that the no. 36 & 37 cartridges are in the Lexmark return program where you can get money off new cartridges by returning the old ones. That's probably why they have some sort of fuse in them so they can't be refilled. You can however buy the more expensive no. 36A & 37A cartridges which are apparently refillable. I haven't tried this out yet but I shall be buying these next. Here is a link explaining it:

I bought the 36a & 37A from Sams Club and my printer will not recognize them so I returned them.
