Here is another (untested) method of determining how much ink to refill: I have measured the weight of the full PG-510 cartridge (as it arrived with the printer) at 34g. I guess it can be safely filled with a few more ml (possibly up to 38g?) . Now I can simply weight the cartridge and add 1ml...

No worries. It should be similar to the older PG-40 cartridge. I still have to decide about the best refill method. 1. The 'usual' method seems to be to drill a small hole on top and use that for 'blind' refill (either some predetermined amount or until it actually starts to come out of the...

Seems that I am talking to myself :) I've just bought that little plastic clip thingy that allows the ink to be pulled from below through the cartridge head. Seems like a good idea to help saturate the sponge after the refill (or am I mistaken?). I have also ordered a kmp-u 100ml bottle so will...

Thanks for the info! I have already learned about the 'german' method from looking through this forum. My cartridges are opaque and have an integrated head so look totally different from the BCI-6/8 cartridges. I don't think this cartridge even has a separate compartment with only the ink so the...

Thanks! I already have a syringe from a refill kit that was total rubbish (Chinese no-name ink - learned my lesson!). Do I really need a resetter (does one even exist for the ip2700)? I was hoping there would simply be a warning that the ink is running low (that I could ignore). As for the...

Thank you for the quick reply! I'm from Croatia so Europe but not EU. Haven't yet checked the shipping charges but the price of KMP ink seems acceptable if it's truly of such a high quality. Do you know if there is a reason why my cartridge (PG-510/512) is not mentioned as compatible? Would it...

Hi! I am new to this forum and my head hurts from all the info :) I have just bought a Pixma ip2700 hoping to be able to refill the cartridge a few times before having to buy a new one. Am I hoping to much? I know I will lose the ink level indicator. Which (inexpensive) ink would you currently...
