MikaChip emulators... can anyone help me here?

[Forty One]

I've just purchased the ink emulator chips for my UJF 7151 plus and I'm having issues loading it to work correctly.
I've been emailing the supplier and to the best of their abilities, they are trying to help work this.
But... I'm still coming up short.
Is anyone using this particular chip and running LH100 inks. 1 litre bottles?

If so, can you message me and send me any ink profile to test?

LH100 still uses the old-style chips, so they should be super easy to emulate. You can also reset the chips with about $10 in hardware and free software if you want to go that route.

Possibly. But since I'm already in the hole for $100 or so, may as well make it work

Have a picture of the emulator and can you see what chip it is based on? Might be able to figure out how to program it from there. Seems the LFP guys don't have their engineer anymore, so lots of complaints on getting those to work as of late.

The actual chip has been blacked out.
But, it is the ds2431 chip.
The software loads up the files and stored it on there, and I can check it after to confirm but when I load it into the printer it keeps coming up with the non IC error

You just need to load new file into the emulator. e-mail to the lfp-repai-service they will provide new one if you originally bought it from them.

The version 2 Mikachips are dodgy at best and when you ask for support, they just try and sell you on their chip emulators.

Oops, misread that as the MikaChip 2. Never played with the emulators as they're just arduinos using the 1-wire library.

I believe person asked here for help and not on someone personal limited opinion. To solve his particular problem he need to load new ink data file in to emulator. It been proven for many other printers that these devices works.
