If you have slight variants of the cartridge codes listed in this guide them please check that your cartridge does not say “Returns Programme Cartridge” under the number on the label. If it does I would advise against refilling it, as this cartridge will terminate when it believes it in empty and your printer will refuse to recognise it.

The air holes of these units are very small and you may have trouble getting needle of the syringe to fit. If this is the care I would recommend using the tool provided with many refill kits or a small drill bit to widen it.

This guide is intended purely to show where to inject the ink into these cartridges and how much we recommend using. For full refill instructions for these cartridges please click here.
