Hi, I received my ink refills but found no instructions. Where can I get instructions on how to refill cartridges for Canon and Samsung? Thank you.

According to instrs for "Jettec inkjet refills" canon has 29 different cartridges. I would have to know the reference letters and numbers of a specific cartridge to get you instrs.. As for Samsung "ink M40" instructions say..... 10 Using the drill provided make three holes at the positions marked. Note: This cartridge contains three separate chambers, and must have an equal amount of ink injected in each. 2) Assemble the syringe and needle, pierce the bottle seal and draw up some ink. 3)Insert the needle down into the foam. 4) Slowly inject the ink. When the ink rises and is visible at the fill hole slightly draw back the syringe plunger until the ink disappears. Repeat this process to all three chambers. 5) A small amount of ink may drip from the printhead, wipe this away with some paper towel until the printhead stops dripping. 6) Install the cartridge back into the printer and operate the printer cleaning cycle. 7) Your cartridge is now ready for use. 8) Clean the syringe and needle thoroughly with water for future use.

Can't help with your brands. I Filled my HP carts with about 5 CC for black and each color. It's messy and ink stain your fingers for 3+ days. Use a lot of paper towels. If you overfill, use the syringe to pull some ink back out. Keep the "cap" on each cartridge to try to stop excess flow out the bottom- Ink will wick out if you place the cartridge on ANYTHING.

Just had the same problem about 3 or 4 months ago. I went through all manual instructions and web suggestions. Clean head, run goofy printer maintenance etc. Just barely prints black and no color. Would be nice if their software would just fix their stinking printer. Was speaking to my ink guy (he has become rich off my Canon ink needs) and he said he would try to fix for free. Yes, scared me also. I am taking next week and if he can I will try to determine what he did and let you know. Otherwise it is just a rotten Canon printer. Almost makes you think they have a program that checks the date and when a certain date .... Maybe I am getting paranoid.. but after using a PIXMA that can happen.

i would not use any ink for refilling canon inkjets unless it was done by canon, the original ink made by canon.and i am pretty sure that canon does not refill their inkjets - - - and be sure not to use 3rd party companies for any refills.

It should not happen. Did you buy through Amazon? You are suppose to get new cartridge with the new printer. It sound fishy to me. I bought through Amazon, it was new but seal was broken and printed directions were missing. I was familiar with other Samsung so I figured out to put together and start. Also there is help available from Samsung. When you buy through Amazon, check the supplier, read the comments and you do not feel satisfied go for little higher priced or the one that is available and supplied by Amazon. Buy a new cartridge (Amazon not others or similar) that is the option. I hope that answer your question.Manhar It should not happen. Did you buy through Amazon?

I don't know as I just buy them in the packages they have available.....most places locally (which are diminishing very quickly) won't try to refill anything but the OEM cartridge and then sometimes they are picky on that depending on the brand.........sometimes their cartridges don't work either and to eliminate the hassle I switched to buying these on the net......that's about all I can tell you...

All refilled cartridges don't register because it's refilled. I remove mine, give it a shake and put it back in. It still says it's empty, but it's printing!

Hello, I bought 5 sets of ink cartridges off of a seller on that large auction site thinking I would save loads of money. Followed the instuctions to a tee and my printer now does not recognize the chips. Tried reset hold/ OK hold, nothing. Wasted 36 bucks on 35 cartridges I cannot use, not to mention the huge mess when you open the "pressurized" new cartridges. Ink on clothing and desk with no fore-warning. Avoid the refill cartridges that you have to pull off the chip and reset it on the new cartridge unless you love throwing money away while becoming totally annoyed and exasperated at this exercise in futility.

To the best of my knowledge they probably offer compatible cartridges for the Canon printers. My husband and I both have different Canon printers and have been thrilled with the quality and prices offered by this company. I will NEVER buy another Canon cartridge again!

It's not refillable. Samsung is actively going against refillers and that's why you don't see any offerings at this time.This is now their (Samsung's) business model - sell an inexpensive printer and make bank with the refills. Same as ink printer manufacturers have done for decades. I would not be surprised either if the cartridge was microchipped and refuse to work after a high number of prints...As I noted in my review though, this may work in your favor - if you print sparsely, you get a cheap machine that'll last years without refills (and doesn't clog up like ink printers).

I just had this happen to me. I called Canon technical service. They talked me through removing ink cartridges, print head, waiting, then trying it again. )Don't do that on your own, there were several warnings along the way about what not to do.) Unfortunately, after I did that, I got the same error message. I was told I have to take it in to a service center. Ugh. Or, there is a "customer loyalty program" they offer with a discount and free shipping on a new printer. Canon number is: 800-652-2666. Customer loyalty program number: 866-443-8002. Good luck

I wouldn't order ANY REFILL kit! I did and and my printer rejected it. There is a chip in the ink levels that alert the cartridges and won't let you refill! So lucky I didn't pay more then $20.00 bucks on the refill kits. BUT I did have to buy the right HP new cartridges price which isn't cheap! The best place I found to get the cartridges are either Sam's Club or Costco. Walmart only has 1/2 the ink compare to the other stores.. Look for the # of pages you get for the ink you purchase. Good luck!!

I had the same issue with one of the cartridges. I assume it's the chance one takes with super cheap ink. I did order more and if it has a problem again, I'll just pony up for the full-priced stuff.

I use the refill on my ip2700. Be sure to reset the printer to allow it to use a cartridge that appears empty. Every canon printer that I have owned has this feature, but it is undocumented.

Only original ink cartridges will read. if you follow the directions none of the after market ones will show. I have used several different ones even talked to Canon, they work fine just have to pay attention before you run out of ink.

Hello, Natalia -- I really can't relate to that experience, as, I've always had good luck and no problems with ordering the correct inks, no matter the model of printer. I've bought several printers via Amazon over the past ten years and it's been the same just-right experience, each time -- including the follow-up inks. I always buy the factory suggested, true ink -- no refills/knock-offs, ever, by-the-way. Never have ink/printing problems, either. I wish I could give you a hint as to why you are experiencing anything other than perfect satisfaction in your ink-to-printer purchases.

Were these ordered from Yoyoink...?? Yoyoink has been very good to respond to my problem. My problem on my Canon was that the printer did not recognize the cartridge. My printer (wireless) only works part of the time. I'm too busy to spend a whole afternoon talking to Canon, etc., etc. What can I tell you...pay the full price and buy cartridges recommended for your printer.
