Thank you Alchemist,

The specific cartridges are assembled in Mexico. They have
marks on the contacts, but less visible than marks made
from a printer (may not noticable in the first sight).
Because you said that Mexico plant tests filled cartridges,
it seems that they are originals, as there aren't any
scraches in the whole cartridge surface. I couldn't think
that they test all cartridges. But why not?
