Hello there,
we have Canon 4700 and 4850 printers which we have just started to refil the cartridges ourselves. We are using gti ink 4 dye colours (inc black) + the black pigment ink for the large cartridge.
we (so far) have succesfully refilled the colours and thin black and are getting good prints. However we have refilled approx 4-5 black 525 cartridges and when printing they give poor results.
Specifically when priniting a word or excel doc the text is not sharp, faint and lines in excel are wavy!
We are using the german refil method (drill small hole near lug / ink exit hole to printer, syringe through foam all the way into main chamber and slowly fill with ink whilst cartridge is upside down. We are putting in approx 18ml ink until some comes out the cartridge to printer hole - top air hole is not covered during process should it be?
Is this method not so good for the big cartridges would it be better drilling a top hole in the main chamber? Any help much appreciated. :/
