I'd like to understand the circuitry that accompanies canon cartridges.

Has anyone found a good tutorial site.

thanks

The "circuitry" would be trivial - a trace from the pad to the ink gun.
Who the hell is going to pay somebody to come with a tutorial on a
throwaway part?

At the appropriate time, you send a current pulse to the correct ink
jet, and it squirts ink at the paper. I think it's little heating
elements, that boil the ink and shoot the remaining liquid ink by
the power of ink vapor.

Good luck!

He probably wants to see the chip that tells the printer the cart has been
used before.
There are refill sites that show how to spoof the binary code sent to the
printer by the chip.

Canon doesn't do that nonsense.
In fact, Canon (except for their cheapest units)
uses seperate inkwells for each color (quite frugal).

You're thinking of Lexmark, Epson, And HP.
