Ink Suction Tool

Many people are facing the problem that their cartridge gives only a few lines of print after refilling when it should actually be delivering about 50 prints or so.

The reason for this problem is that the ink does not reach the head and as a result, you get no output on the page.

SOLUTION: To force the ink near the head. While I have written on the pages as well as many of the comments, that air can be blown to force the ink out, it's one way thats not preferred.

The best solution for this is to buy an ink suction tool. It can be bought from Ebay.in

Here are images of what it looks like



As you can see, the cartridge can be attached and held into the tool. The white silicone grip at the bottom provides an airtight seal. When you pull the plunger of the attached syringe, pressure causes the ink from the sponge to flow towards the head.

Beware that you don't pull the plunger too much or you will drain all the ink from the cartridge into the syringe. Just pull enough so that you have 0.5 ml of ink in the syringe.

Take out the cartridge from the tool and wipe off any excess ink that's sticking to the head (soft tissue paper).

Allow the cartridge to stand for a couple of minutes and you are ready to print.
