how is this stamp reinked when the ink runs out that is in it when you get it

I purchased EGP Self inking re-inking fluid - black from amazon.com to re-ink the pad. This ink is made for self-inking stamps.

There is a small tray at the top with an ink pad that you can slide out and add more ink. Very simple.

I use liquid ink that you can find at office supply stores. I work in a library and use it as a date due stamp, so I have to re-ink about once every two weeks or so.

The ink pad should slide out and you just soak it with ink. Not 100% but most stamps are like that.

You can buy bottles of ink right on Amazon. When the ink starts to run dry, you just depress the stamp part way and add a few drops to the built in pad.

The stamp pad can be replaced with a new one or re-inked. I use the Trodat ink, also available thru Amazon, I apply a few drops on the pad any time the date starts to look faded. The small ink pad is easily replaced, remove the pad by applying slight pressure on the bottom to raise the date stamp from the pad, then sliding the stamp pad out. reinsert the new pad in reverse order. I have had 2 of these for about 2and a half years they are still working fine.

Have not had to refill it yet, I imagine the plug with the big hole is where you pour the new ink. Make sure the tiny hole is also open to allow air to escape when you pour the ink in the big hole.

I haven't had any problems with it running out of ink. I like the pen enough-- not my all time favorite pen, but I like it enough.

It is separate from the ink cartridges. I believe it is used to collect excess ink and must be replaced when filled.

It may work if you paint the bottom of the stamps (letters only) with a thin brush. When you press the stamp down on ink pad you also get the square outline of the stamp.

I would think so. The ink pad is separate from the actual stamp so I would assume you could just buy a different colored ink pad.

Thanks for your inquiry. The stamp will not likely work, the downward force of the stamp will be too dispersed. The pen however will work great. If you notice you are having trouble similar to some of the reviews below where the copy is only working on the first two sheets, your entire ream may be upside down. If you look on the front of the packaging there is a little black arrow marked "printing side up." This paper only works one direction, so if the pen ink is only working on 2 of the sheets instead of the three, look for the arrow, and make sure you are writing on the printing side.

I'm only guessing but I think it's because companies are now making printers to compete with competitors that are striving to make cheaper ones so they can sell ink. Ink is where the money is. I have read about people who throw their printers away when their ink runs out because it is sometimes cheaper to just buy a new printer. In an attempt to stop this some new printers come with smaller introductory cartridges that don't last long. Printers today are sometimes hard to keep running. Mine often tells me it is out of paper because it doesn't feed properly from the tray up into the printer. When this happens I have to pull out the paper tray, tilt the printer on it's side, pull out the paper that didn't feed, put the tray back in and push the OK button. My printer uses a lot of ink so I buy after market bulk quantities that seem to work well.

The little ink pad for this self-inking stamp comes in the package with the stamp and is slipped into the device while holding it partially depressed. There is an instruction sheet packaged with the ink stamp that gives instructions and a visual.

I stamped one to ck for you. The ink does not dry but then I applied embossing powder and heated it. It embossed wonderfully. It would be an extra step for you but it will be very impressive!

It comes pre-filled but if you need to refill later, the top snaps off and there are two little holes to drop ink into.

There should be a "red" slide on the side of the stamp. Push the top of the stamp down where the "ink tray" is exposed freely and slide the red slide to lock the stamp(where it cannot go up or down) Then you should be able to slide the ink tray out. Replace the ink tray, unlock the red slide on the side of the stamp and you should be good to go. Also, if the ink pad in the plastic tray has separated from the plastic tray inside the stamp, you may have to "jiggle" the tray a little bit to get it out of the stamp to put the new one in.

They will email you after you purchase. In the email they ask you what you want on the stamp. It is very fast and they made the stamp exactly as I asked.

Unfortunately, apparently Cannon printers have some "built in" system that if you used refilled cartridges it will state "empty ink levels or no ink" even though it has ink. This apparently only happens when you use remanufactured or refill a cartridge. You can't get rid of this but when you install a refilled or remanufactured cartridge press and hold the reset button for 30-60 seconds until the alarm light goes out. This actually resets the print levels even though they may not show on your system ink levels. I try to keep an estimate of my printting and know when when my levels are truly out and order more ink. Hope this helps. Unfortunately, apparently Cannon printers have some "built in" system that if you used refilled cartridges it will state "empty ink levels or no ink" even though it has ink.

No, you have to keep inserting the paper to get all the stamps. Which is a pain, because, say you just want the time stamp - you have to put in a blank piece of paper, remember when the time stamps (1st, 2nd, or 3rd), then get to what you want before you put in your document. I hate this machine, and rarely use it.

The ink and paper will run out at the same time. Where you won't need to replace the ink or paper one at a time. You will be replacing the ink and paper at the same time.

This stamp can be re-inked easily. Make sure you use a water based ink such as Trodat self-inking stamp ink. DO NOT use pre-inked stamp ink, such as Xstamper ink. It will ruin your stamp quickly. You can also replace the small ink pad in the stamp. If you have an old stamp, replacing the pad will make it print clearer.
