To refill a Lexmark ink cartridge should be quick, easy and fun. So
why not join the many thousands who are already enjoying savings on
their printing costs by using a Lexmark ink refill. But how do
you go about refilling a Lexmark Cartridge without all the hassle that
sometimes gets associated with doing this task. Below we provide you
with some tips which should help you. 1. Avoiding the mess. Whenever
refilling your ink cartridge you should do it over some newspaper but
it is better if you can use an old rag or shirt instead. The reason
being the cloth will soak up any excess ink immediately and it will be
much easier to clean up afterwards. But once you have practiced
refilling your ink cartridges a few times the mess issue will soon be a
thing of the past. 2. Cleaning up the mess the first time. You
will find that when refilling an ink cartridge for the first time you
are likely to get ink on your hands. In order to get it off you need to
wash them with soap in order to remove any excess oil. Then follow this
up with a solution of mild bleach and water. Then after this you wash
your hands again with soap and water so that you remove the bleach and
excess. 3. What to do if the cartridges dry out. The
number one problem when refilling cartridges is that you wait too long
before refilling them. If you do not fill up your cartridge straight
away it will dry and clog the micro holes at the printer head. This
will then lead to all sorts of problems. The foremost of these being
that they ink does not come out. So a good way of preventing this is to
have two cartridges one in the printer and one that is filled and ready
to use. But if you do not have two cartridges then make sure that you
refill the cartridge as soon as it runs out (do not wait). However
if you wish to avoid these types of problems then make sure that you
follow the instructions which come with your Lexmark ink refill. Most
importantly of all you should follow the instructions provided to the
letter. |
