Caring For Your ink-Jet Cartridges

Tips for multiple, successful refills and preventing future issues: 

  • Always carry your cartridge with the print-head facing up.

  • Never tape your cartridge. Tape does not protect, it leads to contamination and possible damage to electronics.

  • Do not abuse the cartridge in any way (don’t squeeze, drop, throw, or shake).

  • Do not touch the electronics or the print head.

  • Keep your cartridge at room temperature.

  • Place the cartridge in the printer as soon as you get home.  If the cartridge is not going to be used in your printer right away, purchase a protective clip from us for 99¢ to prevent it from drying out.

  • Don’t run the cartridge completely out of ink. Remove it from the printer shortly after you get a "low ink" message or you notice streaky printing.

  • Print at least once a week with color and black.
