Refill Kits for HP (Hewlett Packard) Inkjet Printers

Refill your inkjet printer cartridges and be kind to the environment with our easy to use refill kits.

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.


51645A/G (45), C6615D/A (15) - (Black)
51640C (40), 51640M (40), 51640Y (40) - (Colour - C/M/Y)
51644C (44), 51644M (44), 51644Y (44) - (Colour - C/M/Y)

1. Turn the cartridge upside down. Carefully remove the black plastic film that covers the filling hole (you may need to use a small knife for this), then push in the ball bearing that seals the filling hole with a ballpoint pen or something similar.
2. Slowly inject up to 20-25ml. of the correct colour ink (black, cyan, magenta or yellow) into the filling hole.
3. Seal the filling hole by squeezing the cartridge sides (this will create a vacuum when let go) and inserting the plug seal provided into the hole. This seal must be airtight, if it is not, use some additional tape to ensure an airtight seal or the cartridge will not work. Some ink will leak from the print head.
4. Place the cartridge print head down on absorbent paper for 2 minutes to draw out any excess ink and equalize pressure in the ink chamber.
5. Fill each colour required & then place the cartridge(s) back into the printer and run a priming cycle per printer instructions or print a couple of test pages.

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.


INK LEVEL RESET INSTRUCTIONS

Understanding Your Printer's Estimated Ink Level:
The newer Hewlett Packard printers have included in the software that comes with their printers, a "toolbox" that includes a section called Estimated Ink Level. It’s a great tool that allows you to keep track of how much ink is left in your cartridges so you don't start a big print job and run out of ink in the middle of it. The only problem is for those who wish to refill their own cartridges.
If you refill your cartridge or have someone else refill your cartridge, it will read as low or empty when you try to print with the cartridge. How does HP do it? They started embedding a serial number in the contact strip located on the back of the cartridge. The printer remembers that serial number and gives the message of low or out of ink. The internal memory is located in the printers’ firmware and is not in the software. It will remember the previous two cartridges ink level. The following pages list the various methods for the cartridges we know about.


51645 (45) or C6115 (15)

Reset Method 1:
1. Refill your cartridge.
2. Following the diagram at right, place a piece of adhesive tape covering only the four blue colored contacts (a contact is the individual copper square). Make sure that only those four are covered and no others.
3. Place cartridge in the printer. The printer may tell you that there is a problem with your cartridge. Ignore this message. The printer may print an alignment page. If so, allow it to do so.
4. Take the cartridge out of the printer. Remove the tape from the four blue contacts. Place the tape over the four red colored contacts. Make sure that only those four are covered and no others.
5. Follow step 3 again.
6. Take the cartridge out of the printer for the final time. Take the remaining tape off and place back in the printer. The printer should print out an alignment page and the estimated ink level in the toolbox should read full.
WARNING: Take care not to lose tape covering contacts inside the printer. This method is used at your own risk.

Reset Method 2:
If Reset Method 1 did not work on your printer, go through the same procedure again, but this time using the green colored contacts in step 2 and the pink colored contacts in step 4. This method is more commonly used for the C6615 or in the later OfficeJet printers.

Reset Method 3:
If neither of the reset methods above worked, you can cycle cartridges through to reset the level. You will need two extra cartridges and the one you refilled. First, put the refilled cartridge in the printer. Allow it to recognise the cartridge and print an alignment page. Take that cartridge out and place in the first extra cartridge. Allow it to recognise and print an alignment page. Take the first extra cartridge out and place the second extra cartridge in. Allow it to recognize and print an alignment page. Take the second extra cartridge out. Place the refilled cartridge back in the printer. The estimated ink level should be reset to full.
