Carmelo42 - 1. Now you have an auto reset of the total page count, do you get a flashing error light on the front panel, which you can now ignore because the printer will work anyway - some people have found this occurs? In answer to your query from above - Try Cartridge Co, Nottingham.

Samsung CLP-315 Toner. But i wanted to ask if there is a software solution, like firmware hack or something else. Carts with new powder without having to buy. First upgrade the firmware on Samsung CLP-310, CLP-315 9,11,18 by using a soldering iron. CLP-310 with the minors’ versions has problems with their firmware upgrade through the fix.

I sent them a query email which they replied the next day. I ordered some black toner for a HP mono laser jet, 140 grms £7.80 incl VAT & P&P arrived 3 days later by post.

I have not seen powder for clp315 any where cheaper yet, but don't need to buy powder yet. Thanks David. Carmelo42 - They are a brilliant set of photos for the hack. The first two *.jpg links you gave above look the same, or am I missing something? On my CLP 315 I removed the 12 or so pins in the door, it was easy to do, so WHEN I do the hack I do not need the tape to insulate them, mentioned in the third photo link. My printer works fine without these pins. All those pictures were worth waitng for.

For those using the links above you have to delete a number of spaces in the web address. Thanks very much David. Barbie et le cheval magique jeu pc tlchargement film.

Build me a buttercup song. Hacking the Samsung CLP-315 Laser Printer 03 March 2012 on,,,, I am the happy owner of a laser printer. It is a fantastic printer for the price. Things were going great until it came time to replace the toner.

At the time, the price of a full set of toner cartridges was around $150. To put things in perspective, the printer itself could be.

Not being the type of person who so easily bends to the will of “The Man”, I set out on a journey to find a cheaper source of toner. As it turns out, the answer is yes but in the end it was worth it. This is going to be a long post, so strap yourself in. If you’d prefer to cheat, you can skip straight to the.

How Stuff Works Since I last purchased a laser printer (my circa 2001 is still kicking) the industry has changed. Imagine that!? Apparently, it is now common practice for printers and even toner cartridges themselves to count the number of pages that have been printed in order to track the consumption of toner. The printers then use these page counts to project how much toner remains in the cartridge. To my knowledge, the cartridges don’t have a way to sense how much toner remains. Why does this matter, you ask?

Essentially, it would be like having a gas gauge in your car that only tracked how far you had driven, not how much gasoline was left in the tank. Depending on several factors (driving style, load, tire pressure, etc), the amount of fuel consumed in a mile can vary wildly. The end result; you either waste gas, or run out. Neither is good.

The same can be said for the way modern laser printers track toner. This causes two problems. First, toner is likely being wasted (which irks me). Second, refilling the cartridges with toner purchased in bulk does nothing to reset the accumulated page count. It is like putting gasoline in your tank, but not being able to start the car until the odometer is reset. Knowing all this, the only thing standing between me and was finding a way to reset the counters. Unsurprisingly, I am not the first person to try to address this problem.
