On HP printers, they only keep track of the last 2 cartridges installed - so you can take out the printer backup battery or install the old cartridge again, twice, then the new one again. For the Epsons, you can get a little gizmo on eBay for about 6GBP which will reset the chip in the cartridge so it thinks it's a new one.
