Before you start:
1. Read the instructions carefully.
2. Work over a sink or a surface covered in layers of newspaper (just in case).
3. Only re-fill a cartridge that has just run out ~ this kit will not work with old dried out cartridges.
Even 30 minutes can ruin a cartridge if it dries out!
4. Have your printer manual handy for instructions on inserting a “new” cartridge.
1. With the drill bit supplied, make a 3mm filling hole above the ink reservoir. (See diagram above).
IMPORTANT – DO NOT DRILL INTO THE SECTION CONTAINING THE SPONGE.
2. SLOWLY inject ink into the filling hole until the reservoir is almost full.
IMPORTANT – Cartridge contains a sponge and slight resistance may be felt.
3. When ink overflows from filling hole, cartridge is full. Stop injecting ink immediately.
4. Seal the hole with the plug provided. If the plug seal is not airtight, then secure and seal plug
with strong adhesive tape.
THIS SEAL MUST BE AIRTIGHT, IF NOT THE CARTRIDGE WILL LEAK.
5. Leave cartridge to stand on a protective, non-absorbent surface overnight to prevent leakage and
to give the ink time to fully saturate the sponge.
If necessary leave cartridge in the printer for up to 24 hours. (Allows ink to flow to the print
head).
IMPORTANT
Empty cartridges should be refilled immediately.
This work is best done over the sink.
