Refill Instructions of superInk compatible inks for Epson printers

Dear customer, thank you for purchasing a superInk product.
The difference between a good and a bad print depends on several factors and one of the most important is certainly the quality of the inks used.
superInk inks are of high quality, produced exclusively by industry leaders and bottled on behalf of superInk.
superInk ink bottles are designed to preserve the product for as long as a possible and are custom made, with an embossed logo (for a total guarantee of the product), a convenient graduated scale and special reinforcements on the sides for maximum resistance even in the event of accidental knocks or falls.
The product is compatible with all major Epson inkjet printers.

For more detailed refill instructions, tips and printing tests, please select the most appropriate reference for your printer model from the Refill Instructions menu.

Recommendations

• Always follow the refill instructions with the utmost care. Do not to refill cartridges that have been empty for a long time or completely depleted. Best results are obtained by refilling the cartridges before the ink is completely depleted.
• Prepare the work surface to avoid any unwanted stains.
• Wear a pair of protective gloves.
• Always use the same needle for each color.
• Pay attention to the arrangement of the colors in the cartridge (injecting the wrong color will render the cartridge unusable). If you are unsure of the exact arrangement of colors in the cartridge, use a cotton swab (or a toothpick) to identify each individual color.
• Once refilling is complete, clean the syringes and needles with lukewarm water and always store inks and related accessories safely and away from children and animals. Store away from heat sources and/or direct light.
• To restore the correct ink flow in the cartridge, carry out test prints and, if necessary, conduct one or more cleaning cycles.

 
• WARNING: the syringes and needles contained in the package are NOT medical devices, NEVER use on people or animals!

SOR/KAM/KUI/IB06 and ITH/YTH/SAT/IC70/IC80 series cartridges (Black and Colors)

• Place absorbent paper on the work surface to soak up any ink leaks

• Turn the cartridge upside down and drop the ink directly onto the sponge (picture 1 and 2) of the cartridge outlet

• Slowly refill until the cartridge is filled (picture 3 and 4).
Do not refill the cartridge too quickly to avoid unpleasant spills (always wait a few moments to allow the sponge to absorb the ink before injecting more)

• Once refilling is complete, turn the cartridge over again and wait a few minutes for the ink inside to stabilize.
If necessary, press the cartridge very gently (picture 5 and 6) to remove excess ink

[WARNING] CARTRIDGE / INK LEVEL RESET
Before starting the refilling operations, it is necessary to reprogram the microchip on the cartridge using a special “resetter” to make it reusable.
We recommend carrying out this operation before refilling to make sure the microchip works properly, thus avoiding refilling a cartridge that may be unusable.
If the printer displays a warning message regarding the use of NON-original cartridges, it will be necessary to confirm the message (in order to use the cartridge) by pressing the “OK” or similar button.

MUG/RDH/IC69 and IC46-50-62 series cartridges (Black and Colors)

• Place absorbent paper on the work surface to soak up any ink leaks. Seal the ventilation hole with adhesive tape (picture 1 and 2)

MUG/RDH/IC69-74-75-76-77-78-79-83-84-85-86 series cartridges (triple hole)
• Make a hole of about 2 mm in diameter (picture 3) paying particular attention to make the hole perfectly vertical to avoid damaging the internal film covering the side wall of the cartridge.
After having drilled the first external wall of the cartridge, continue and drill the other two underlying walls/dividers (this will allow the cartridge to be fully refilled)

IC46-50-51-53-55-56-59-61-62-64-65-66-88 series cartridges (double hole)
• Make a hole of about 2 mm in diameter (picture 4) paying particular attention to make the hole perfectly vertical to avoid damaging the internal film covering the side wall of the cartridge.
After having drilled the first external wall of the cartridge, continue and also drill the underlying wall/partition (this will allow the cartridge to be fully refilled)

• Slowly inject the ink needed for refilling (picture 5 and 6)

• Clean the refill upper hole with a paper towel and seal it with adhesive tape or with hot glue (alternatively we recommend using the colored silicone plugs of our "Refill Set" to speed up subsequent refills and avoid any errors with the different colors)

• Remove the adhesive tape previously placed from the ventilation hole, paying attention to any ink leaks
