  It only remembers 2 cartridges of each type (currently loaded and 
previous). You only need to rotate between 3, not 4.

  I don't think you can reset using the buttons. That does let you 
access diagnotic printouts and similar. The taping method just alters 
the ID, giving the effect of changing cartridges.
