Lexmark Black Cartridge
32,34

 

***IMPORTANT NOTICE*** Do not try printing with your cartridge completely out of ink, you could damage the printhead. Inkjet printers work by heating up a resistor inside the printhead, which heats up the ink before it is sprayed onto the paper. If there is no ink to keep these cool, it is possible to fry them.

Always refill before you are completely run out of ink.

 

Instructions: Wear old clothes and use newspapers or paper towels to work over.

 

 

1. Peel off the label.
2. Fill the syringe with 10cc. of ink, insert the needle into the hole closest to the copper strip and push down into the center of the cartridge. Slowly inject up to 15cc of black ink into the cartridge. (Any hole will do since they all go to the same sponge....this one is just closer to the printhead.)
3. You can replace the label or leave it off. It will make no difference in the printing.
4. Set above a paper towel for half an hour as a drip precaution.Expect a few drips. Do not allow the cartridge to touch the paper towel at this point, since the towel will draw out the ink.

Replace the cartridge and run 1 - 3 cleaning cycles as per printer instructions.
If necessary leave cartridge in printer for up to 24 hours.
A Refill Kit should include Ink plus the following:
1 Syringe/Sharp needle
