Standing in front of the machine, use your right hand to lift the right-sided lid to the open position; lifts the scan bed. You will then see the location of the ink "cartridges" (or carts, as some folks call them). You machine has already told you which cartridge to replace (indicating the color, such as, yellow, black, et cetera). You grab the cartridge that you need to replace by gently pulling out of this slot; you will hear it click; Remove that cartridge and replace it with the new one. The new one is probably sealed in plastic, so you need to open up the plastic and then remove the yellow piece of tape that covers the ink hole. Seat the cartridge in the machine and close the lid.

Pop the cover. Unhook the cartridge. Peel off the tape and insert ink cartridge. Close the cover. Notev that you cannog use after market ink any more. You have to use factory ink. Getting expensive. If you have one, use it and do not buy new ink printer.

Hello Zack,To the change the Ink, open the flatbed. It opens right above the paper tray. The ink cartridges have a latch. To remove an ink cartridge, press the latch of the ink cartridge and pull straight up.To insert an ink cartridge, remove the orange tape from the feed hole at the bottom of the cartridge. Find the color coded slot for the cartridge that you are replacing, press the cartridge straight down into the slot until the latch is secure.

Open the top it's below the glass. Should be an indent on each side of the printer. It lifts up kinda hard and remember to hold onto the glass scanner top.

The ink is encased in the cartridges so I don't know how you could use your own ink. Sorry. I haven't had a problem with the ink or tried other methods of ink before.

Dewayne, Just pop off the clear lens that the paper rolls through. The ink roller will be clearly visible. Pop it out [it will say pull up where you need to remove it] & snap the new one in.-Lou

I have a HP6500 officejet. Have you already taken the other printhead out? I bought a refurbished one from Amazon and it was like new. I followed the instructions in my handbook that came with my printer. If yours is like mine. You open the top of the printer as if you were changing the ink. At the right hand side there is a gray lever, raise it up. That will release the pressure and you can remove the ink cartridges. You then, pay close attention to how the printhead comes out, then just place the new one in there, put ink cartridges back, put gray lever back down to lock in place. You then need to run a test print page. I have a HP6500 officejet. Have you already taken the other printhead out? I bought a refurbished one from Amazon and it was like new.

the ink cartridges sit inside a tray. that way it's using the same printhead all the time and doesn't need to be realigned every time you change a cartridge. the name is a bit misleading, but it is very easy to change cartridges.

I dont believe you need anything special or different. You manually install them exactly as you would all other ink cartriges that fit in your printer. You just have to follow your printer's normal instructions to change out ink.

The ink reservoir has a plunger that must first be descended by twisting the black endpiece slowly counter clockwise. Then place pen tip into the ink bottle while slowly turning the top piece clockwise. You can practice this with water to get the hang of it. Its less messy. Pelikan 4001 is an ink I've been happy with.

Just re-ink. Different pads are available at Staples and Office Depot in other colors. Most standard ink pads will fit.

Yes - If you're using refillable cartridges, you can replace the entire cartridge with a new, different ink cartridge. DON'T MIX THE TWO INKS IN THE SAME CARTRIDGE. Also, if you HAVE A CIS (Continuous Ink System), then you would have to replace the entire CIS - remove the tube line that leads from the ink source & replace it with a new system along with the new ink you're using. If you don't, the inks will mix and/or be distributed differently (some of the old blue with some of the new red) as it disperses through the feed tubes and you won't get true results from using the new ink. Also, I WOULD NOT go back and forth from sub ink to non sub ink. Let your sublimation printer be dedicated to sublimation ink.

The unit that fits inside your printer should have a reset button on the front...mine is white and square. After you click this, go to your program and click on the button that sets up the new cartiage....mine works after I do this.In fact, before my ink runs down a little bit, the printer program wants to say it is empty and all I do is reset it and reset the printer. These programs are assigned, I think to recognize using x amount of ink even when it is not empty. Even the cartiages you use, it says they are empty when in fact there is 20% ink still available.

I recommend searching on YouTube if you want to see it's done - that's how I learned. In short, unscrew the pen, attach the converter to the half that has the nib, twist the red part of the converter so it's all the way down (close to the nib), stick the nib in the ink, and then twist the red part back up. Text + picture instructions: http://www.jetpens.com/blog/how-to-use-a-fountain-pen-converter/pt/221 Note: I have seen videos where people fill the converter alone (not through the nib), but there very few of them compared to the through-the-nib fills, so I assume you're supposed to go through the nib.

Yes, you can change the ink before it runs out. You will have to clean the nib first (this pen comes with a water cleaning kit). It's really simple.

A small orange color piece is provided with inks. Insert it where the door closes and the printer sees it as door closed. Make sure to change all inks at the same time. These inks works like a charm. Every print that comes out of my printer makes me feel good about the price I paid for these extra large cartridges.

Just pull the empty ink right out. The new one will pop back into the same opening. You won't damage the mechanism.

gently push up on the clear plastic cover to remove. Gently push the ink roller to the left and it will pop out. Insert your new roller and replace the clear cover by inserting the bottom into the slot first and then gently push.

To replace any ink tube, just pull. Hard. When inserting the refill, push. Hard! Don't worry.

There is no ink to replace. The printer uses thermal labels. That is a real perk with this printer...never have to replace an ink cartridge.
