I Just bought that printer yesterday and I accidentally bought with it the 104 ink bottles instead of the correct 102 bottles.
Can i use the 104 ink if I replace the 102 bottle top with those of 104?

You may swap the 102 vs. the 104 ink for the CMY dye colors, the 102 black is a pigment ink, and the 104 black is a dye black. You should decide with which ink you want to continue to use once the first bottle is empty - both pigment and dye black are possible but I would not recommend to switch back and forth, and printing with the pigment black may require some more cleaning in the foreseeable future if you print a lot.
