How to refill Epson compatible cartridges?

Before refill the cartridges, please note:

If you receive a low ink warning, there's no need to refill the cartridges immediately. First, verify if they are truly empty. If there's still ink remaining and you refill them to full, you might soon receive another message indicating an empty cartridge, even though ink is present. This occurs because the chip is programmed for a full cartridge, and refilling disrupts this synchronization.

The proper time to refill the cartridges is when the message indicates they are empty, you are certain there's very little ink left, or when print quality declines. This method ensures synchronization.

For optimal functionality of the refillable cartridges:

Do not manually update your printer's firmware / disable automatic firmware updates on your printer.

Please use the complete set of refillable cartridges in your printer.

Some Epson printers do not accept mixing non-genuine cartridges with the original ones.

How to re-fill a cartridge:

Step 1:

Take the cartridge/s out, if the chip on the refillable cartridges has a chip re-setter, re-sett the chip before refill the cartridges.

Open the coloured plug on the cartridge, see figure 1and figure2, use the syringe and the attachment provided to re-fill the cartridge with ink, some refillable cartridges have a label shows the maximum level for the ink to refill.

Step 2:

Open the clear plug and leave it always open when the cartridges in use to let the air circulate inside the cartridge see. figure3.

(keep the clear plugs to re-use them if you transport the printer to avoid any spillage)

Snap the filled cartridges into the position of the respective ink color inside the printhead carriage by pressing the upper and lower ends of the top of the cartridge again after the first snap-in. In this way, you ensure that the ink outlet is reliably open and that there is contact between the contact pins of the printhead carriage and the contact surfaces on the ink chip on the cartridge.

When all refillable cartridges are in the printhead carriage, close the cover, Epson printer will start processing the cartridges information. The printer will indicate on the display that the refillable cartridges are not original Epson consumables - which is correct. Please follow the steps on the display - it is necessary that you confirm the use of the refillable cartridges - the printer accepts the refillable ink cartridges and displays them with full ink level.
