do i need a special cartridge to refill ink?

Question

do i need a special cartridge to refill or can i refill my introductory cartridge, i have a hp printer!

Answer 1

No you can refill your introductory cartridge as it is the same as the replacements sold in the shops. The instruction manual will tell you where to drill the appropriate holes.

Plus in reply to a previous answer on this page, it is only mess is you inject the ink quicker than the foam will absorb it.
Good luck,

P.S. I would also recommend the mass buying of ink to save even more money. You can get 1 litre bottles of ink from http://www.jrinkjet.co.uk/index.php

Answer 2

I refilled my introductory cartridge. Did the tape trick. But I still get the low ink message? What have I to do?

Answer 3

You can refill them yourself,Or just buy replacement cartridges,Most supermarkets have their own brands now,To refill them yourself includes buying a kit which contains ink,a drill ,plugs and instructions these are for sale in all good supply shops.

Answer 4

But refilled off ebay alot of them even pay for your old cartridges

Answer 5

They do have refill kits at most stores, selling computers or printers...So, I say you can refill your old cartridge..And they also have stores that refill them for you, at a reduced rate as a new one...

Answer 6

Go on to eBay and print "lik4veryone" they are not as much to buy as a refill

Answer 7

nope u dont. u need the same one u have in the printer, but check this out. its a messy process..

If u have walmart near u, buy the *no frills* brands. works just as well as the hp brands.
good luck
