Forget about emptying your wallets every time you see the blinking light. Quit worrying and start doing it yourself!
It's an easy process that won't take you more than five minutes.
The following is included in a typical ink refill kit: ink bottles, syringes and detailed instructions.
Some kits include an air balance clip for balancing the air inside the cartridge to ensure proper ink flow.
Some kits also include hand-drill tool to make a hole in the top of your empty cartridge.
Refilling Process1. To start the refilling process, fill the syringe with one of the ink colors over the sink or several sheets of scrap paper to prevent any mess.
Different printers hold different amounts of ink.
In most Epson printers, the black cartridge holds approximately 17 ml and the color cartridges hold approximately 8 ml.
See the instructions with your refill kit to see how much ink your cartridges can hold.
2. Before inserting the needle, make a small hole in the top of the cartridge (one for each color chamber).
The hole is at the top of the cartridge near the label.
Simply push the needle through the hole and press to the bottom of the cartridge towards the outlet hole.
It's important to fill the cartridge slowly so as to avoid the ink from foaming and introducing air in the chamber.
3. You do not need to seal the refill holes since there are already breather holes on the top of the cartridge.
4. Any unused ink can be put back in the bottle.
You should clean the syringe with water and dry it properly to do the same process for the other cartridges or for future use.
You can also label each syringe for the different colors so that each syringe is only used with one color. 5. Once you place the cartridge back in the printer, run the cleaning cycle 1 to 3 times.
If there are any gaps in the printing, run the cleaning cycle again. Don't ForgetThere are a few things to remember when refilling your cartridge.
It should be refilled before the cartridge is completely empty to avoid the chamber from drying out and clogging.
Also, it is a good idea to let the printer cartridge sit for a few hours (or overnight) so that the pressure in the cartridge will stabilize.Some printers, like newer Epson models, have a green chip on their ink cartridges which is visible by looking at your cartridge.
They are often referred to as "Intellidge" cartridges.
The chip keeps track of how often the cartridge is used and lets the computer know when the cartridge may be low or empty.
As long as you reset the chip, refilling the cartridge with ink from a refill kit will not be a problem.
A resetting tool can be used to reset the memory on the chip.
This allows the printer to recognize the cartridge as being full which makes printing with a refilled cartridge possible.
Refilling your own ink cartridge is easy, good for the environment, and very good for your pocket.

Save money on printer ink
If you are near your printer, look at it for a moment and think about the last time you had to replace the ink cartridge. Was it a hassle? Was it expensive? Was it time-consuming? Was it confusing? Probably the answer was yes to all four questions!
People often consider printer ink as a curse rather than a useful product since it never seems to be full when you have a big print job, and it can be very expensive to replace. After all, everybody knows that the printer manufacturers take a loss on their printers and making huge profits on their printer ink! There are alternatives however, instead of having to go out and buy a replacement cartridge each and every time. Here are some options for you.
You can choose to fill the printer ink yourself, which can be messy, but is probably the most cost effective method. Kits are available in most department stores and office supply stores.
All you do is remove the cartridge and use a syringe to inject ink into...

Ink Cartridges & Printing Problems - Poor Print Quality
Why are there faint areas or gaps in my print out?* Unlikely, but your paper may need changing due to its deterioration due to its age.* Check that the type of paper you are using in your printer matches ('Media Type') the setting in the printer software 'Main Menu' or 'Print' dialog box. * You may need to clean the print head nozzles. These can be cleaned by employing the 'Head Cleaning' utility from within the printer software interface you get when you want to print or by going via the 'Control Panel' (found via 'My Computer') and selecting the printers section. After the cleaning operations are carried out by the printer, a check pattern will be printed to show that the ink cartridge nozzles are clean. If there are still poor quality areas, repeat the operation.
I have white horizontal lines appearing?* You may need to clean the print head nozzles - see above * If your printer has a light flashing indicating low ink levels for a cartridge, then change it.* Check that the type...

The Development of Printer Ink Cartridges
With the introduction of the inkjet printer and printer ink cartridge in 1984, the task of printing your documents and changing printer ink cartridges became more convenient, reliable and cleaner than the previous methods of changing ribbons or inserting a toner cartridge.
Prior to 1984, the ink delivery systems were not as dependable as they are now.
The inkjet system replaced the old dot matrix method, which required changing a ribbon.
It wasn't long before the printer industry began conceptualizing a new ink delivery technique, including the drop on demand method.
Several companies were the driving forces behind developing the inkjet technology, and by 1990 the method was widely accepted.
Today it is the method of choice for printing requirements, and will print both black and white documents as well as color graphics and photos.The quality is excellent, thanks to the development of printer ink cartridges.
