I am going to fill some virgin Hobbicolor carts with their new CLI-8 inks to try in my IP5000 and I wanted to clear up a couple of queries about the refill technique that mikling has posted.
Does the 1cc of ink at "A" come from the syringe being pushed through the sponge from "C" and, does "The Balance" at "C" refer to that which is going to top up the reservoir?
Is the ink at "C" and "B" squirted onto the top of the sponge or injected a certain distance into the sponge?
The Hobbicolor carts have a plastic screw atop the reservoir, I assume an OEM cart would require an opening else the air could not escape as the ink was injected.
