Remanufactured Chip - What You Need to Know
Remanufactured chip: Our compatible HP cartridges use a remanufactured chip that lets the cartridge keep working through HP firmware updates that typically block non-genuine cartridges - so no sudden "cartridge blocked" or "incompatible cartridge" messages after an automatic update.
Trade-off: Your printer will not display an accurate toner level. Plan refills by pages printed rather than relying on the on-screen gauge.

Warranty
Compatible Cartridge Warranty
Every compatible (non-OEM) ink and toner cartridge we sell is backed by our own warranty. We stand behind these products, so if one doesn't perform as it should, we'll make it right.
What's covered
Our compatible warranty covers the product against:
- Any print defect; and
- The cartridge not being recognised by your printer.
How to make a claim
If your compatible cartridge is faulty, please contact us and provide the following so we can assess the claim:
- A sample print showing the defect, or a photo of the fault as displayed on the printer;
- A photo of the packaging; and
- The serial number on the product.
What happens next
Once you've supplied the above, we will issue a store credit that can be used to purchase a replacement — or, if you prefer, a refund back to your original payment method.
Using our compatible cartridges will not void your printer's warranty. If a printer fault is ever attributed to one of our compatible products, please get in touch with us and we'll sort it out for you.
