I did try to contact them but have not heard back, either way. They may be closed or something tho. No idea. Some businesses are closed due to the bug thingy. It may be that later on they allow me to return it. >From my understanding, when it reaches zero pages, it stops that cartridge from working. In other words, even if there is toner in the cartridge, it won't feed it into the printer. It may be a Lexmark thing. HP may do it differently. I looked to see if I could find a replacement chip and some toner but not for my printer, yet anyway. Maybe in a year or so. Dale :-) :-)
