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 CARTRIDGE
1. If necessary, use the tools provided to enlarge the filling hole situated on the top of the
cartridge.
 2. Fill the syringe with approximately 20ml of black ink.
3. Push the syringe all the way into the filling hole and SLOWLY inject all the ink into the cartridge
or until the reservoir is full.
4. Replace the cartridge and run 1 - 3 cleaning cycles as per printer instructions.
8. If necessary leave cartridge in printer for up to 24 hours. (This allows ink to flow to the
print head).
COLOUR CARTRIDGE
1. Locate the filler holes by removing the plastic top cover of the cartridge. You may need to
pry this off using a thin metal blade. Ensure you do not damage the sensors on the back of the
cartridge whilst doing this.
2. Using the picture, fill syringe with the corresponding colour ink.
3. Insert the syringe into the correct hole of the colour being filled and push all the way down.
You will feel resistance as there is a sponge inside. Slowly inject approximately 8ml of ink until
you can just see the ink surface on the top of the sponge, any more and it is over-filled. If this
happens simply draw back on the syringe a little.
4. Rinse the syringe and needle thoroughly before proceeding then repeat the process for the other
colours.
8. Re-attach the cover securely with adhesive tape and continue using the cartridge.
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.

BLACK, COLOUR & PHOTO CARTRIDGES
In the picture shown, we have removed the label to help you identify where the filling holes are
located. However we DO NOT RECOMMEND YOU DO THIS.
 1.
Attach the needle to the syringe and identify the placement of the correct hole for the colour you are filling
based on the diagram right.
2. Once you have identified the correct filling hole for the colour and cartridge you are filling,
push the needle through the label into the cartridge. You will feel some resistance due to the
sponge inside, this is normal.
3. SLOWLY inject ink until the sponge is saturated (approximately 3ml ink).
4. Use adhesive tape to seal up the hole made in the cartridge label before continuing with other
colours to avoid contamination.
NOTE: The cartridge will leak if this is not done.
4. Once done, thoroughly rinse the syringe before using with any other colour inks.
5. Reinstall cartridge and run 1-3 test pages as per manufacturers instructions. IMPORTANT
We recommend refilling prior to the cartridge becoming empty.
Empty cartridges should be refilled immediately.
This work is best done over the sink.

- Same instructions for both.
 1. Put the Ink Cartridge on some paper towels or Newspaper in an area where you can tolerate a
spill.
2. Peal off the top label.
3. Follow the canal trace from the edge of the label to the very small hole at the end of the canal.
This hole is big enough for a human hair to go through but not a syringe needle.
4. Drill all three holes (Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow) larger with the thumb drill provided.
5. Fill the syringe with 7 ml. of the CORRECT colour ink.
6. Very CAREFULLY inject ink into each chamber until the sponge is full. A little ink might come
out of the top when full, so cover up the other two holes while filling one.
7. When finished, replace the top label with some adhesive tape.
8. Replace the cartridge and run 1 - 3 cleaning cycles as per printer instructions.
If necessary leave cartridge in printer for up to 8 hours.
** NOTE** The cartridge will print just like a new one. Even though the cartridge prints fine,
the ink level gauge will not read full after a refill.
