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.
BLACK & COLOUR CARTRIDGES
1. The filling hole is the same as the access port. The printer draws the ink from this port. Shown
in the picture is the location of the filling hole / access port.
2. The ink is contained in a plastic bag, this is delicate and it is VERY IMPORTANT not to insert
the needle of the syringe more than 3/8” (10mm) or it is possible to damage the plastic bag
which will render the cartridge useless.
3. Fill the syringe with the correct colour ink and carefully insert the needle into the filling
hole / access port and SLOWLY inject approximately 4ml of ink per chamber.
4. Hold the cartridge upright with the filling hole on top. Use the syringe to remove any trapped
air by only inserting the needle 3/8” (10mm) and withdraw the plunger to remove any air pockets.
5. Once done, thoroughly rinse the syringe before using with any other colour inks.
6. Reinstall cartridge and run a priming cycle as per manufacturers instructions.
IMPORTANT
Empty cartridges should be refilled immediately.
This work is best done over the sink.
