There are many different options available for refilling the ink cartridges but best is that you buy an ink re-filling kit. This kit is easily available at most of the cartridge stores and it can also be bought from online shopping site which offers the ink cartridges. This kit contains almost all the necessary tools required for refilling a cartridge and it may also provide you a manual for instructions about refilling.

Here in this article I will provide you some basic instructions for ink cartridge refilling.

You can find a syringe in the cartridge refilling kit. You will need to make a hole at the top of the cartridge by the help of a needle. Each color of the cartridge has its own tube in the cartridge. You will have to identify the top of each tube and put the needle in the top, which, in most cases, is just beside the label of the company. Secondly you must check the actual capacity of each tube which you can find in the printer’s catalog. After knowing the exact quantity to be injected, you fill the syringe up to that quantity and inject the ink very slowly into the ink cartridge.

Doing it slowly is important here as otherwise it may create some air bubbles in the ink cartridge and it might not work properly after refilling. Ideally you should be doing all this over sink to avoid the ink marks on the furniture. After injecting the specific quantity of the ink into the cartridge, slowly take out the needle and seal the hole created by the needle.

If still there is some ink in the syringe then you can put it back to the ink bottle and it can be used again. After that, wash the needle very clearly before using it for refilling of any other color.
