There is a local business that does this already! You can bring all your
old cartridges there and maybe they'll give you a discount for being a
local nonprofit! And because your old cartridges are valuable and will be
reused by them:

Hi Sudoroom,
I'm writing from the Long Haul in Berkeley, a space kinda similar to the
Omni.
We are quickly accumulating a bunch of half full ink tubes which our
printer decides are empty based on reading/writing the RFID chip on the
tube. Its calculated based on the number of pumps. The machine is a Riso
RZ990.
I am wondering if anybody at Sudo is interested to collaborate on keeping
these tubes out of the landfill by re-writing the RFID chips to show a full
tube? Maybe this is something to drop by Hardware hack night on?
(In the longer term we hope to fix the machine to avoid this problem in
the first place. Come visit us sometime and see our print room - it's great
for making posters and zines.)
