[@Dani1165]

I wish your video had an overhead angle showing the holes as the needles are inserted.

Will Canon Acounting software still display the correct ink usage with refilled ink (to calculate print costs)? Let's say I have 30ml original Lucia TD ink in my cartridges, can I fill the cartridge with InkOwl ink? (Can I mix). If I can't, do I need to do some sort of cleaning before refilling? If I buy InkOwl cartridges, do they have a specislized hole for easy filling? Does the chip reset when I refill them? Is there any danger to using this ink? Thanks!

[@InkOwldotcom]

When the ink level in memory on the cartridge chip reaches 0%, you have to do the bypass to continue printing, and from that point on, the ink levels will not be tracked. Therefore, the ink usage software will no longer give accurate readings. That said, the cost per unit volume with our ink versus CANON's is as much as 80% lower, meaning that other costs like paper become much more predominant in actually estimating print costs, not to mention employee time setting up and running the print jobs. You can absolutely refill even before the original CANON ink empties. The mixture of our ink with CANON ink is not a problem. We do sell cartridges for most printers, as you may have seen on our website. However, there is no advantage to refilling our cartridges versus just refilling the CANON cartridges you already own. There is no pre-made hole nor does the chip reset. You'd still refill our cartridges the exact same way as shown in this video, and have to do the chip bypass when "empty". We chose to have our inks manufactured in the USA so that we can exert much better control over their quality. We're thus able to ensure batch-to-batch consistency with every re-order so that there are no surprises. Our inks match the colorant type used by CANON (pigments where CANON uses pigments, dyes where CANON uses dyes), and the inks are formulated with a similar chemical base as the original so that they can be mixed in the cartridge and in the printer's tubing without ill effect. Our inks are absolutely compatible with the CANON printhead technology and you can order them either in our cartridges or in bulk with full confidence!

I would like to know if there is a TA-20 PFI 030 refillable cartridge?

[@InkOwldotcom]

We don't have any specific refillable cartridges for that model. However, you can refill the original PFI-030 cartridges you already have! The technique is the same as shown in this video and the ink is available on our site: www.inkowl.com

[@rodlovell.official]

@@InkOwldotcom Thank you very much for clarifying this question. is this ink for TA-20 compatible for which Canon printers? I live in Brazil, and I would like to know if a paint that is directed to another model can be applied to this TA-20 model. can you find me on this subject?

[@tiborlelkes5885]

excellent, thank You. only one question: do You have any solution for home made cleaning of IPF670 print head (this is combined print head for all colors and are very expensive)

[@syafiqmuhammad9682]

[@tarkanoz1804]

his method works on Canon Ipf815 ?

[@InkOwldotcom]

Yes, absolutely!

[@tarkanoz1804]

@@InkOwldotcom Thx. what if a cartridge (eg PFI-703MBK) is empty, can I still use the plotter?

[@stno1976]

What should l do if the cartrdge leaks? Mine appears to leak before refill. Thank you

[@InkOwldotcom]

If the cartridge is leaky, that is to say, if you continually shake the cartridge, ink continually leaks out of the exit holes, then it will need to be replaced.

[@stno1976]

Ok. Thanks

[@troosi]

Do I have to change chip or do any reset after refill?

[@InkOwldotcom]

Once the ink level on the chip reaches 0%, in order to continue printing, you will need to remove and reinstall the refilled cartridge, and follow the onscreen instructions to disable ink level monitoring.

[@ThisDesignedThat]

in step 5 wouldnt the seal be broken and leak because you have just pierced a syringe through it?

[@InkOwldotcom]

Our refill kits use a very sharp "cannula" needle, designed for this purpose. The needle is designed to penetrate the rubber seal without removing any material. So, once removed, the rubber expands and seals the hole. It's the same principle as the needles inside the Canon printer!

[@عبدالرحمنباعقيل-خ9ل]

Some time I have air in the pipeline how can i remove it manually Or how to run a system fill ?

[@vivsibanda7115]

Hie do you have a maintenance video for the iPF8000 I recently bought one which has been laying around foe some time

[@stno1976]

Hi my 102 ink cartridges leak. How can i stop the leakage?

[@InkOwldotcom]

Did you use a cannula needle as shown in the video? If you used a regular hypodermic needle, the seals on the cartridge have certainly been damaged. Unfortunately, once a cartridge leaks, it will need to be replaced.

[@kingdarius11]

Might be a dumb question but your product can be used to refill original cartridges? I don't have to buy new cartridges and then refill? Thanks in advance

[@InkOwldotcom]

Correct, you can refill the original CANON cartridges that you already have!

[@kayceec43]

Hello, I was just looking at your site and was interested in buying a 120ml Bulk Kit for my CANON MAXIFY Printer. I was wondering how many times one bottle will fill the cartridges you sell. Thanks so much!

[@InkOwldotcom]

For the Canon Maxify, you can get for more information on the product here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jqrGeYSDd7yXj5o The number of refills depends on the model. For PGI-1200 cartridges, it's 3 of black and 6 each color. For the PGI-2200, it's 1.5 of black and 3 of each of each color.

[@PacoEG98]

Hi, can I make a little hole on top of the cartridge and refill it from there?

[@InkOwldotcom]

Yes, that method works too, but you'll have to be sure to seal the hole perfectly airtight afterwards.

[@redgreenblue2977]

Why don't you guys have refillable carts for IPF-106?

[@InkOwldotcom]

We don't offer the refillables as we believe it's more reliable to refill the original CANON cartridges using the method shown. We've not been satisfied with the quality of the refillable cartridges we've evaluated. Of course, if you choose to buy refillables elsewhere, you could still use our inks in them!

[@redgreenblue2977]

[@ClubPlanetaPayner]

When using available inks, can the printhead be blocked?

[@InkOwldotcom]

You always need to make sure to refill with an ink that was custom-formulated for each model. At InkOwl, we do just that, and closely match all the characteristics of the original ink. Furthermore, all our inks are made in the USA, so we can guarantee our customers the same exact product with every re-order.

The iPF605's print head cannot support pigment ink, I'm afraid. If you need a pigment based printer, best to switch it out for a Canon iPF6400SE or an Epson T3270.

[@InkOwldotcom]

The PFI-703 is a dye-based ink, totally different from the PFI-706 series, so the inks cannot be transferred over. If you bought the cartridge from us, you can contact our customer service about an exchange.

[@AndreLuiz-ec3tl]

Hi! Can I use an empty and cleaned pfi 107 magenta cartridge to fill it with cyan ink and insert on the cyan color tank? Or every cartridge must be used with the same color named on the cartridge?

[@InkOwldotcom]

The chip on the cartridge is programmed for a specific color slot. Also, the cartridges have keying to prevent them being put in the wrong slot. Furthermore, cleaning a cartridge is very difficult to do properly and mixing inks together or mixing ink and water can cause unexpected issues. All this to say, we really cannot recommend this!

The inks are distinct, and the chips are distinct too. If you have a 102M cartridge when you need a 104M, the cartridge will not be accepted by the printer.

I have an IPF770 And the printhead go to fail after only 164M2. Can you recomend an A0 ploter that can work a lot of more time with compatible ink ?

To be honest, we strongly recommend the Canon iPF series. These are the easiest printers to refill and to service too. I'd actually recommend replacing the printhead unit and continuing to use your iPF770.

If i print 300 m2 is 1E/m2 . And this cost is only with printhead, no ink, no paper, no location fee, no operator . This is an abject form of bussines on the manufacturer side. This companies have bilions in profits and i don't think R&D cost so much, because most of R&D is how project chips to force customer buy Outrageous expensiv inks. or printer stop every minor problem like waste tank or other minor aparentlu problem. If compatible ink give prety result at a fraction of price what is included in "original ink" ? Gold ? Platina ? wolfram ? Paladiu , Kryptonite ? ;)) .
