Hi,
I am trying my hand at top filling 525/526 cartridges, I have read page after page on this Forum and decided that Top filling OEM cartridges with Octoinkjet ink would be most suitable for me.
However at my first attempt I have managed to "overfill" and the ink actually started to expel through the Vent Matrix ( I understand that this is not good), so, here is my question, if I purge and Underfill these cartridges will the Ink level indicator still work as if it were filled to the correct level. The reason that I ask is because I am worried that if I reset the chip then I believe that it would register as if it were a full cartridge, I do not want to run the printer like this if there is a chance that it could "run dry" through under filling and possibly damage the print head.
I have just ordered a set of scales as I think that maybe re filling by weight could be more suitable to me.
Regards
