It depends on what printer you have, You can normally just reset the drum count on the printer and keep printing till the quality goes bad. Once the drum gets marks on it the page will have lines through it and you will need to replace the OPC drum on the drum unit. We carry most Brother OPC...
One thing you are forgetting with these cartridges. They do not have a waste bin to collect the old used toner like the HP cartridges have. It just rolls back around the cartridge roller and goes back into the cartridge. This contaminates the powder in the cartridge. You might only see 15 grams...
Your question on if the cartridges are the same. The ones on ebay are the second generation cartridge you can tell by the small round circle in the middle of the cartridge and the fill hole is next to the air plug. On the first generation cartridge the fill hole is on the far side of the...
Your cartridges have a chip on them and it is the chip which tells the printer the ink level of the cartridge. You will need to get a chip re-setter or a refillable cartridge with a auto reset chip on it. Your printer takes T0961 to T0969. From memory these have the 9pin chip on them. There are...
Has anyone taken one of these printers apart to clean? A customer had a ink cartridge leak all through the printer and i need to get right into it to clean up the ink. I am stuck at the stage to remove the lid of the scanner bed, there is two hinges but they dont seem to want to come out and i...
Only the 3EPBK cartridge uses the pigment ink all the rest of the BCI3 use die based ink. But apart from that you can use the same die based ink in both 3 and 6 cartridges as well as the 8 cartridges as well.
The HP Black is a pigment ink, Most of Epson ink is die based ink. the HP colour ink is die based ink as well as the Epson.
You can use die based ink in-place of pigment ink but not the other way around. You must also take into account there is two different types of print head, HP uses heat to...
These are the most simple cartridges to refill. You will need a syringe and a bit of fish tank air hose. You can pick the air hose up from your local pet shop.
Get your air hose and fit it over the end of your syringe then cut it off and leave around 2 or 3mm of hose at the end. Fill your...
it sounds like you have blocked print heads, If the sponge was so dry it would be hard and the ink would overflow out of the cartidge and also it would be very hard to insert the needle into them. Do you have a print head tester to test the electrical state of the print head? I use the...
How i fill these cartridges is get a hair dryer or heat gun and heat up the hp label to remove it been careful not to over heat it. then you should see the fill hole under the label. put your needle in and fill. Put label back and you are done. If there is no fill hold get drill and make a hole...
The PG-40 CL-41 50-51 cartridges do not have a chip to reset but you will have to reset the print count. The printer rights directly to the print head. You can fill them no problem but you will have to drill a small fill hole in top of the cartridges. You might want to get a hair dryer to soften...

I have a ink and toner refill shop and i have found that most of the HP black printers take the same toner, as do the brother black printers, Some xerox printers take epson and dell toner and have the same cartridges as do hp and canon printers. The thing you need worry about is finding a good...
