If that's all the chip does then it should simply be a matter of
getting the right ink in a bottle (or pouring it out of a cartridge),
the right empty cartridge, the right chip zapper (I see them going for
$10.00 these days) and refilling. In the case of the 2200, one could
empty an existing 2200 black cartridge, refill with the desired ink
then zap the cartridge. Somehow I suspect nozzle characteristics may be
tuned to a particular ink and not another. But that's what pioneers are
for.
