i see chip resetters being sold and i see something called auto reset chips but not much info about them to explain how they get reset.

when looking to buy generic ink cartridges they all have chips now but who in the world knows anything about how those chips work?

the chip reseting tool i understand, you pull the chip and pop it into the resetter then reinstall it.

but the auto reset chip has no info about it. is it as simple as that, it resets automaticly so thats all you need to know? im asking here lol:confused:
