Abstract:
A toner container installable in an image forming device having a controller according to one example embodiment includes a housing having a reservoir for storing toner. A chip is positioned on the housing and configured to receive a first write command from the controller of the image forming device. The chip is further configured to determine whether a transmission cycle bit of the first write command matches a transmission cycle bit of a second write command received by the chip from the controller of the image forming device previous to the first write command. The chip is further configured to resend to the controller of the image forming device a response to the second write command if the transmission cycle bit of the first write command matches the transmission cycle bit of the second write command.

Claim (Index 3):
A method of electrical communication between a slave node of an I2C communication bus positioned on a replaceable supply item installed in an image forming device and a controller of the image forming device as a master node of the I2C communication bus, comprising:\n receiving a first write command by the slave node on the replaceable supply item from the controller of the image forming device; comparing by the slave node on the replaceable supply item a value of a transmission cycle bit contained in a header of the first write command with a value of a transmission cycle bit contained in a header of a second write command received by the slave node on the replaceable supply item from the controller of the image forming device previous to the first write command; if the value of the transmission cycle bit contained in the header of the first write command is equal to the value of the transmission cycle bit contained in the header of the second write command, sending by the slave node on the replaceable supply item to the controller of the image forming device a response to the second write command without executing the first write command; The method of  claim 1 , further comprising: if the value of the transmission cycle bit contained in the header of the first write command is equal to the value of the transmission cycle bit contained in the header of the second write command, comparing by the slave node on the replaceable supply item a value of a command ID of the first write command with a value of a command ID of the second write command; and if the value of the command ID of the first write command is equal to the value of the command ID of the second write command, performing said sending by the slave node on the replaceable supply item to the controller of the image forming device the response to the second write command without executing the first command.
