Black & Color Cartridges
1. Place a piece of adhesive tape over each outlet hole(s) in the base of the cartridge. It is recommended to use a separate piece over each hole.
2. Attach the needle to the syringe and fill with the appropriate color ink.
3. Use the needle to push through the label all the way into the cartridge of the correct filling hole. Very slowly inject ink into the sponge until the cartridge is full. (This will soak the sponge with ink and refill the reservoir).
4. Use adhesive tape to seal the hole(s) made in the top label. Note: The cartridge will leak if the holes are not sealed properly.
5. Any unused ink may be returned to the bottle. Rinse the syringe with water and dry between each color refill or store for future use.
6. Leaving the adhesive tape on the outlet hole(s) reinsert the cartridge and run 1 - 3 cleaning cycles as per printer instructions. it may be necessary to leave cartridge in printer for up to 24 hours to allow ink to flow to the print head.
NOTE: If cartridge is refilled before it is completely empty this time is greatly reduced.
