Installing Reset Gear on Starter Cartridges
Using the illustration below as a guide, remove the 3 screws
indicated with red arrows. Once the screws have been removed,
carefully and gently detach the side panel.
The picture below shows how the gear
should be set once it has been placed within
the panel. To insert the gear in this panel,
slide the flag (which is the longest part of the
gear) through the right side opening (green
arrow on right side) and then slide the gear to
the left. Once you have done this, hold the
flag in place and place the panel back on the

Installing the Reset Gear
Some of the starter cartridges don’t contain reset gears, or even a panel that allows
one to be installed. For this we have added two illustrations on the right. When you
purchase the reset gear, it may come with a new side panel to replace the old one with
(this is only for starter cartridges). The illustrations to the right show how the cartridge
may look without the gear, and how it should look once its installed.
If you are using a cartridge other than a starter cartridge (a cartridge that didn’t come
with the printer), then you only need to reset the gear. Putting it in the same position

Thanks for this very important and useful post. Thanks for helping out in providing step by step process. Sometimes cartridges and toners are as costly as new printer and hence refilling is always best. Toner refilling does save a lot of money. Keep writing more on other printer issues as well. Thanks again.

Toner refilling is very easy and it is quite a good business. Many people opt for refilling because original toners are very costly. As a service engineer of private Canon toner refilling centers in Chennai reading posts related to printers gives me knowledge. Thank you.

Good post on printer refilling. The post is really very informative. Refilling saves a lot of money rather than buying new ink cartridges or laser cartridges. We provide Laser toner refilling in Chennai and we do this work on a daily basis and hence like to read post regarding printers.
