1. The cap on the top of the cartridge must be removed. This can be accomplished very easily with knife.Hold the cartridge with the label facing you. Insert the blade of the knife where the cap meets the cartridge and twist. The cap should pop off very easily..
2. Once the cap is off, hold the cartridge so that it matches the picture. The 3 larger holes are not fill holes. The smaller holes are the fill holes. In order to inject the ink you must first drill out the fill hole. To enlarge the fill hole, drill until you feel the drill go through the other side. Optionally you may put a piece of tape over the outlet holes to prevent the cartridge from dripping while refilling. You are now ready to inject the ink.
3. Screw a needle on to the syringe and draw up about 2 ml of ink.
4. Insert the needle through the fill hole and deeply into the hard internal sponge. Slowly inject the ink into the sponge. It is a good idea to withdraw the needle a few times while filling, in order to get the whole sponge filled with ink. Make sure and use a different syringe for each colour.
5. Set the cartridge on something (ie: block of wood) that will allow the outlet holes to hang off the edge, allowing any excess ink to drip onto a paper towel. Let it sit until the cartridge stops dripping. Do not allow the outlet holes to touch the paper towel because the ink will be wicked out. Put the cap back on and seal it with tape replace the cartridge in the printer
Replace the cartridge and run 1 - 3 cleaning cycles as per printer instructions.
If necessary leave cartridge in printer for up to 24 hours.
