Once you have a good supply of cartridges start refilling some different types to get up to speed. You can test them in your friends printers; you probably know many people with different printers. If you're serious you can buy test printers very cheaply on eBay or other online auctions. Know anybody that works at Staples, Office Max, Best Buy? They have allrepparttar new printers on display.

You shouldn't need to test every one you refill. But you will need to test your refilling procedures to make sure you are doing it right. When you are convinced they are refilled properly then you don't have to test every one of them. Now if you wantrepparttar 107203 best refilled cartridges you will want to eventually get a test printer for each type of cartridge that you refill.

Here is a tip. If you refillrepparttar 107204 cartridges that are inrepparttar 107205 most demand you will be so busy you won't have time to sleep. Most of those will be Lexmark cartridges. Why? Because Lexmark is buying back their cartridges and there aren't many floating around forrepparttar 107206 refillers to refill. Cartridges like 12A1970, 10N0016, 10N0026, 15G0055, 15G0065, 17G0050, 17G0060, 18L0032 and 18L0042. HPC6578, C6656, C6657, C6658, C8727 and C8728. You'll want to concentrate on cartridges that have built in print heads becauserepparttar 107207 other "tank" types are sold so inexpensively that you wont make a profit by selling them.

Make sure you code your cartridges some how. You are probably going to get some duds back and you'll want to be able to identify them as yours. People will sometimes send us back cartridges that we didn't sell them. We know because they are coded. Don't let this happen to you.

This article is getting longer than I wanted so if you have read this far you are probably itching to get started. You'll need some education first. The BEST source is Matt Eve's guide "Inkjet Cartridge Refilling". I have a link to his site from my web site at http://atlascopy.com . Look inrepparttar 107208 left column under Inkjet Refill Business.

There are two other guides that I can recommend, distributed by Asay Publishing. "Inkjet Guide for Entrepreneurs" and "Inkjet Cartridge Book". You can find them here: http://www.asaypub.com/bookstore/author.cfm?authorid=7

Continued from page 1

Here's one of my favorites. Remove all of your cartridges and punch a hole in them and quickly put them back inrepparttar printer. Now do fifty back to back print head cleanings while pouring motor oil intorepparttar 107202 paper feed tray. It helps to removerepparttar 107203 paper sorepparttar 107204 oil can get inside faster. If you see smoke that's a bonus. It means you're doing it right.

This next trick involvesrepparttar 107205 use of a ladder and a feather. A chair can be substituted if you don't have a ladder. Any feather will do. Stand on repparttar 107206 ladder or chair and whilerepparttar 107207 printer is on holdrepparttar 107208 feather in one hand andrepparttar 107209 printer inrepparttar 107210 other hand. The law of gravity states that bothrepparttar 107211 feather andrepparttar 107212 printer should land onrepparttar 107213 ground atrepparttar 107214 same time providing that there is no friction from air currents or whatever. Now, lets test Newton's law of gravity. Releaserepparttar 107215 feather andrepparttar 107216 printer atrepparttar 107217 same time. Did they both land atrepparttar 107218 same time? It might take a few times to get this one right. Practice this one a few times.

Here is one that you can do with your partner. Get a couple of screw- drivers. One person can remove every single screw inrepparttar 107219 printer andrepparttar 107220 other person can put it back together. This is fun at parties.
