You don't need a lot of expensive tools to get started. A couple refill kits will pay for themselves rather quickly. If you specialize in a few types of cartridges you won't have to buy a lot of supplies. Popular cartridges like HP C6578 and HP 51645A, HP 6656, HP 6657, Lexmark 12A1970 and 12A1980, 10N0016 and 10N0026.

You will also need boxes and cartridge clips or just use print head sealing tape. These are pretty cheap and you can find them on internet.

If you have a printer that fits a popular cartridge you can use it to test your cartridges before selling them. You can buy printers on eBay for pennies on dollar for testing machines. Don't forget other auctions like Yahoo, Ubid and Amazon for buying printers. Actually you might get a better deal buying a printer on smaller auctions.

Price your cartridges about 25% below retail or use prices from our web site. There's plenty of business to go around so what are you waiting for?

There's not enough room here to go into complete detail but if you want more information take a look at Matt Eve's book on starting a refilling business: http://atlascopy.com/cartridge-refilling-business.htm

This plunger-less injector is one that will be injected into cartridge. Don't put any ink in plunger-less injector yet, just inject it into cartridge. Use a 4" needle and get it in as far as you can. The middle chamber in C1823 / C6625 / C6578 / HP51641 cartridges will not go as deep. Don't force it.

Now get your other injector, one that still has plunger. Using this injector measure out proper amount of ink and slowly shoot it into plunger-less injector's cavity.

The ink will seem like it's not going anywhere at first but let it sit this way for about 20 minutes. It will slowly go into cartridge. Depending on your elevation and amount of ink it may take less than 20 minutes.

Repeat this procedure with other colors.

That's all there is to it. A little patients goes a long way.
