Epson 545 cartridge non-recognition HELP

[outback]

I installed the last refillable cartridge, after just replacing one at a time over a month, and now the printer has all refillables in it and it doesnt recognize any of them. I have taken the cartridges out ten times and turned off and on the printer 20 times, unplugged the unit for 3 hours, and still wont recognize any of the cartridges. HELP........How can this be fixed??

Do your reset chips look like this?

Yes my cartridges are that design

Well, you need to touch the two contacts with a piece of metal and then that will reset them.
