Step 1: Cartridge Cost

Printers are one of the must-have things in your office and at home. Their only drawback is the cost of the cartridges, which is often more than the cost of the whole printer.

I'll show you how to refill and save up to $25 per black cartridge and fool the smart printer's ink level reading into believing that the cartridge is new. You'll need your empty cartridge, electrical tape, regular black ink, and a syringe.

Step 2: Method

Fill up your syringe with ink. Heat up the needle until it becomes red, then quick to poke your cartridge and start filling. Seal back your hole with electrical tape.Then take a look at the copper contacts and cover the same pins that I show you here with electrical tape. Now, insert your refilled cartridge, and your printer will treat it as a brand new cartridge.

Step 3: Repeat as Necessary

You can do this over and over again and save up to $25 every time. Thank you for watching.

    you never showed that the printer was able to print after you put the ink Cartridge back into the printer. you just put a hole in the ink bladder. so that will lead to smearing on the paper because the ink will leak out of the bottom.
