What is that about?

You can use 6130 cartridges in your 6140 printer and vice versa. Xerox introduced some color coding and machine coding mechanically to their cartridges. So a little bit of hardware engineering and filing will be involved. Cheap replacement cartridges "made in china" mostly don't have such a coding so they can be used without modification.

Read all about it, illustrated with pictures, here.

Of course a new EEPROM has also to be flashed to match the target printer type.
