The HN title doesn't do this justice:
Because of the chip shortage, Canon is selling cartridges without chips that identify them as genuine, so Canon is telling customers how to override the warnings that indicate they are counterfeit cartridges.
- detaro 5y agoIf you count "Cartridge can't be detected" as "warning that indicate counterfeit cartrige"...
- MerelyMortal 5y agoI don't have a Canon, does the printer say "Cartridge can't be detected" for all other third party cartridges?
- detaro 5y agoIt's the gist of the errors shown in the Canon documentation linked as "evidence". The "worst" is suggesting that it might be "a non-Canon cartridge".
- krzat 5y agoNo wonder we have a chip shortage.
- dang 5y agoOk, we've updated the title from "Canon sells toner cartridges that register as counterfeit".
- max-m 5y agoThank you, dang. I struggled to come up with a short-ish title. :(
- CamperBob2 5y agoAh, sounds like they used the ATECC508A too. :(
