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. Unclip
the plastic handle (lever off the back) on top of the cartridge.
2. Seal the outlet hole with
adhesive tape. (This will be removed later)
3. Puncture the silver tape with an old ballpoint pen
and enlarge the hole beneath to make the 1st filling hole.
4. Push the steel filling tube into the
filling hole.
IMPORTANT - You will be injecting onto a sponge and slight resistance may be felt.
5. SLOWLY inject ink. When ink overflows from filling hole or starts to leak from outlet hole,
cartridge is full. Stop injecting ink immediately.
6. Seal the first filling hole with strong adhesive
tape.
7. Make a second filling hole (see diagram above) in exactly the same way as the first. This
time you will fill the reservoir with ink. Seal the second filling hole with strong
adhesive tape and remove tape
from outlet hole. Replace the plastic handle.
8. Leave cartridge to stand on a protective, non-absorbent
surface overnight to prevent leakage and
give the ink time to fully saturate the sponge.
9. Install the cartridge and run a priming cycle
as per printer instructions.
IMPORTANT: For best results, cartridge should be refilled whilst some ink remains.
Empty cartridges should be refilled immediately.
This work is best done over the sink.
