I bought a brother laser printer last year, and it bricked itself when using third party ink. I have a printer shaped paperweight.

Solutions offered online are to use a knife to extract the chip from a genuine cartridge to stick on the new one.

I did this. It was actually pretty easy as long as you still have the starter cartridge that came with the printer (to be the chip donor).

Here's a youtube video showing the process:
