First released in September 2006, the Canon imageClass MF7200 series of printers are based on a 1,200-dpi, 20-ppm Canon engine. As with most Canon cartridges they do NOT use a chip. The 105 cartridge is unique in its design; as of June 2007 there is not a comparable HP cartridge. Testing is ongoing to determine what parts are needed/available to remanufacture them. The cartridge for the MF 7200 series is the 105 (0265B001AA) and is rated for 10,000 pages. 
Figure A shows a potential location for a chip and possibly a different plastic configuration for other manufacturers. However no chips are used on the 105 version and we have not seen any other manufacturers use this cartridge yet. Figure B shows that cartridge as removed from the box. Note the many shipping locks and tape seals. This cartridge even comes with a bag of desiccant attached!Remanufacturing the Canon 105 Toner Cartridge |
