These cartridges all contain ink which has been system matched for optimum printing performance depending upon what the printer has been designed by the manufacturer to achieve. Some are geared toward producing high quality, high speed text , others are designed for digital photo printing. Based upon this the resolution of these printers varies dramatically from those geared towards high speed text printing at resolutions of 360 or 600 dpi ranging to those printing high quality digital photographs at 4800 or 5760dpi. We offer solutions that enable all of these cartridges to be refilled with big savings when compared to the OEM price - Remove cartridge from printer before refilling. Please refer to your printer manual for instructions on how to remove the cartridge from your printer.
To avoid mishaps, refill your cartridge over a protected surface such as a kitchen sink or a work bench.
Once you have attached the needle to the syringe, you can fill the syringe by removing the protective plastic from the needle and insert the needle through the silver seal on the bottle. Slowly pull up on the plunger and withdraw the ink from the bottle.
For best results, refill a cartridge before it is empty. It is not recommended that you refill a cartridge that has been emptied for longer than 2 weeks. The sponge will dry out, may not absorb ink properly, and the cartridge may also leak.
Make certain not to put the wrong ink color into the wrong ink chamber. You can identify the color in a chamber by inserting the syringe into the chamber and withdrawing a small amount of ink to verify the color. Remember that magenta is the technical name for Red, and Cyan is the technical name for Blue.
It is recommended to back off or extract a small amount of ink once the cartridge has become full, when filling a cartridge that contains a sponge. You want the sponge to be soaked with ink, but not floating in ink. It is better to slightly under-fill than to over-fill.
Try to keep a cartridge from drying out. This will prevent print head damage and/or deterioration. Handle cartridge gently and avoid touching any metallic parts. Store cartridges at room temperature in a sealed plastic bag. Please note that used cartridges can not be stored for an extended period of time, such as a brand new cartridge.
Cartridges with a printhead should be stored as follows: after refilling, dab the head clean with a soft paper towel that has been soaked with Cartridge & Print Head Cleaner. Once you are ready to use the stored cartridge, remove any dried ink using the same method. See also Cartridge and Print Head Cleaning Instructions.
You can set the cartridge on a paper towel to catch any drippings. The print head can touch the paper towel, but do not allow the print head to remain on the towel for more than two minutes. This will cause the wicking effect, which will empty your cartridge.
Leave the transparent tape on the bottom of most Epson cartridges. When you insert the cartridge, the printer will break the tape, establishing a new seal and telling the printer you have inserted a new cartridge. If you do not get a good seal, the printer will not be able to draw ink from the cartridge, and you will get poor print quality.
If after refilling, the cartridge starts to drip, do not install into the printer. Verify that you injected the appropriate amount of ink into the cartridge. Lay the cartridge on its back (20-60 minutes) , so that the outlet hole or print head is not touching the surface the cartridge is resting on. When a cartridge drips, in most cases, it is because the pressure inside the cartridge is too high, and the cartridge is equalizing the pressure.
Cheap ink cartridges are not typically a feature of any manufacturer branded products as this is basically where the manufacturer hopes to make profits on the consumables. This therefore has spawned a whole industry specialising in third party replacement printer cartridges these can be classified into two different types compatible inkjet
cartridges such as our own generic epson ink cartridges or recycled or remanufactured such as our own Total Rebuild Series hp ink cartridges . Throughout the United Kingdom you will find various websites supplying office supplies all at different pricing structures. We supply into a very niche sector of this marketplace and specialise in products which differ in construction from those originally intended for use in a particular system or facsimilie machine. Alternatively we are also environmentally concious and are trying to promote the art of recycling, whether done via ourselves or yourslelf by way of refilling when you run out of inks is one way that we hope to make the planet a better place for all to live. Throughout Europe many organisations, some backed by EEC initiatives have attempted to create an environment which actively encourages the re-use of printer cartridges which typically are not bio-degradable. In all tests we are finding that the refilled products can perform at optimum printing levels and especially when used in conjunction with plain paper facsimilie machines the resultant savings can equate to more than the printer cost initially especially if costed out on an annual basis. It is for this reason that we have become specialists in this arena and hope that the message of the ease & simplicity that allows consumables to be refilled will eventually be heard and adopted by all.In all instances the ink cartridge is simply part of a complete mechanism that allows the ink to be put onto the page. It should also be noted that a key factor in inkjet printing is the quality of the inkjet paper by using paper which is specifically designed for use by inkjet printers rather than standard office photocopying paper the quality of the printed results are dramtically improved . Inkjet Cartridges Plus is both the UK's and Europe's largest on-line suppliers of compatible inkjet cartridges these are not cheap inkjet cartridges they are generic versions of the manufacurers original consumable sold at a discounted price.
