Installing the Reset Gear

Some of the starter cartridges don’t contain reset gears, or even a panel that allows

one to be installed. For this we have added two illustrations on the right. When you

purchase the reset gear, it may come with a new side panel to replace the old one with

(this is only for starter cartridges). The illustrations to the right show how the cartridge

may look without the gear, and how it should look once its installed.

If you are using a cartridge other than a starter cartridge (a cartridge that didn’t come

with the printer), then you only need to reset the gear. Putting it in the same position

793-5

1. Peel off the sticker on the top front of the cartridge (original Pitney Bowes

cartridges have a sticker that covers the entire top side of the cartridge, whereas

NuPost Compatible cartridges have a smaller sticker).

2. Underneath the sticker, you will notice at least 1 hole. Locate the hole that is

covered by a silver foil seal tab, this silver seal covers the filling hole. (If you do

not see this hole in your cartridge, please use the illustration to your right to

create a hole to refill the cartridge).

3. Attach the needle to the syringe and draw up 8 ml of compatible ink.

4. Either insert the needle through the silver seal, or remove the seal first using

a small knife or blade and then insert the needle through the filling hole. (do

NOT insert the needle through any hole that has a rubber protrusion, as indicated

by the lower hole in this Nupost compatible cartridge). The filling hole

should provide no initial resistance to your needle other than the seal that lies

above it. Once you insert the needle into the cartridge, you will begin to feel

some resistance due to the sponge inside the cartridge, it is OK to penetrate

this sponge. Push the needle gently through to the bottom of the sponge, and

inject about 8 ml of ink or until the cartridge is full. You will know the cartridge

is full because the sponge will no longer be able to hold any more ink.

5. Seal the filling hole with electrical tape, and allow the cartridge to sit for a few

minutes over some paper towels in order to allow the ink to settle to the bottom

of the cartridge, and for any overflow to drip and settle its way out through

the bottom. Once the cartridge is no longer dripping, you can place it back in

the printer

1. SKIP THIS STEP if your cartridge is not a Pitney Bowes original cartridge. The original PB

cartridges have a cap which needs to be removed. Using a medium sized flat screwdriver,

lift the tab as shown in the picture. Once the tab has cleared the top of the cartridge, slide

the cap away from you until it is completely removed from the cartridge.

2. Remove the circular silver seal tabs (not necessary for Nupost compatible cartridges). Pay

careful attention to both areas exposed by removing the silver seals, you will notice that 1

are actually has 2 holes right next to each other, whereas the other area only has 1 hole. In

the area that has 2 holes next to each other, make sure NOT to put ink into the outer hole,

as that is a vent hole and any ink poured in there will leak out the bottom of the cartridge.

3. FOR PITNEY BOWES ORIGINAL CARTRIDGES: Enlarge the 2 filling holes (the one on

the right of the picture shown, and the INNER of the 2 holes on the left of the cartridge as

shown). You can enlarge these holes using an eyelet screw or a small drill bit. Note that you

need to fill BOTH filling holes with ink in order for the cartridge to work. FOR NUPOST

COMPATIBLE CARTRIDGES: There are 2 filling holes, the one is a self-sealing rubber

hole in the middle of the circle on the left, and the other is to the right of the picture which

needs to be enlarged with an eyelet screw or small drill. Both these holes (the larger self

sealing hole on the left, as well as the hole you have enlarged on the right) need to be filled with

ink.

4. Draw up compatible ink in the syringe, and fill both chambers as positioned in point 4 above.

The larger chamber on the left will hold more ink. Do NOT overfill the chambers, especially

the right chamber. If you have filled it to the brink, carefully remove a small amount of ink to

avoid it spilling. You will know when each chamber is full because you will see the ink coming

to the top. Stop short of the top for both chambers to avoid spillage.

5. Cover both filling holes with electrical tape, making sure to leave the middle vent hole open

on the Nupost model as shown below.

6. Replace the cap of the cartridge (not needed for Nupost model). If the cartridge is dripping ink,

place it on some paper towels until it has pressurized and stopped dripping. Now you can place

it back in the Pitney Bowes meter

1. Locate the filling hole in the center of the rubber plug as shown in

the image below. For Nupost models, this filling hole is covered by a

silver seal. You can poke through the silver seal with the syringe and

needle.

2. Inject approximately 25 ml into the cartridge, being careful not to

overfill.

3. Place the cartridge back into the mailing machine and run a test

cycle. Prompt your machine to let it know that you have inserted a

Color Cartridges:

1. The filling holes are located under the plastic cap. Use a thin flathead screwdriver

or knife to remove the cap. Important: Do not to damage the sensors on the back

of the cartridge.

2. Connect the needle to the syringe and fill with ink.

3. Insert the needle into the matching hole of the color to be refilled, (see diagram

above) and push into the cartridge. Note: You will feel a slight pressure because the

cartridge contains a sponge.

4. Inject about 8 ml. of ink, per color, into the cartridge until the ink begins to bubble

at the top of the sponge. Important: Do not overfill. Keep the sponge inside the

cartridge white.

5. Rinse the needle and syringe with water and dry between each color refilling or

store for future use.

6. The cover can be reattached with a piece of tape.

1. Peel back the label from the top of the cartridge to expose the refill

holes of the cartridge. (If the illustration on the right differ from

your cartridge model, use 3 toothpicks and poke each hole to determine

its color)

2. Fill the syringe with 15 ml of black ink (5 ml for each color on

color cartridges).

3. Insert the needle into the cartridge (corresponding with the correct

color ink) and fill. If to much ink is inserted, pull back on the

syringe handle to pull 1 ml out.

IMPORTANT: When refilling, only puncture the top of the sponge

in the cartridge, about 1/8 to 1/4 inch. Puncturing to the bottom

may cause leakage in the cartridge.

4. The cartridge will function better keeping the label off the top of

the cartridge, allowing air to enter the cartridge from the top and

thereby allowing ink to flow better through the cartridge. Keep the

top of the cartridge exposed to air (do not put tape over the holes).

Make sure to keep the cartridges up right when transporting them

back to the printer

5. Rinse the syringe with water and dry between each color refill or

store for future use.

6. Reinstall the cartridge and run 1 - 3 test pages as per printer instructions.

If necessary leave the cartridge in printer for up to 24

hours to allow ink to flow to the print head.

NOTE: Cartridges that are not refilled right away may and can dry

with time. For the best results, refill right after the cartridges are depleted

NOTE: If your cartridge is part of Lexmark’s recycle

program, then the refilling holes might not be

viewable. In this case you can drill a hole in the

same area’s indicated above to refill the cartridge

LEXMARK 100A

Items needed: gloves, hand-drill, cartridges, paper towels.

Note: You will need the Lexmark 100A version.

Lexmark offers for sale two different versions of the same cartridge: The regular version

(#100) is not refillable. It is the “Return Program” or “Rebate” cartridge. Supposedly,

when you buy this cartridge you agree to return the empty cartridge to Lexmark. In

return, Lexmark gives you roughly $5 off the retail list price of the cartridge. The “A”

version (#100A) can easily be refilled. However, the price of the cartridge is roughly $5

higher than the regular version, so most people unknowingly buy the regular version. If

you want to refill, you will need “A” version cartridges.

1. Put the cartridge on some paper towels in an area where you can tolerate a spill.

2. Fill the syringe with 12 ml. of black ink or 5 ml of Color Ink .

3. Pierce with the needle into the label where black meets white. (You can rub your

finger over the label and feel the hole underneath.) See illustration.

4. Push the needle at least half way down into the sponge and Very SLOWLY inject ink

into the sponge.

5. When finished, leave the pierced hole open (this will just be a vent hole).

6. Replace the cartridge and run 1 - 3 cleaning cycles as per printer instructions.

Or print the following pages:

For best results, leave cartridge in printer for 8 hours after refilling so the ink can saturate

the entire sponge.

#10 (Black and Color)

1. Peel back the sticker at the top of the cartridge to reveal refilling holes. (See picture’s
to the right)
2. Connect the needle to the syringe and fill the syringe with 10 ml of ink for the Black
cartridge or 5 ml of ink for each of the colors in the color cartridge.
3. Insert the needle into the filling hole and push down into the cartridge. (Only push
down about 1/4 of an inch). Fill the cartridge with the proper color and then clean
the syringe with water before moving on to the next color. (Do not cross contaminate
colors. Cleaning the syringe is a must before filling it with the next color).
4. Once your done refilling, try the chip installation chip below before inserting the
cartridge into the printer.


*Chip installation instructions*

Newly refilled Kodak ink cartridges need to have their chips replaced with new
chips so that the printer can “recognize” them as full again.
Aftermarket chips are slightly different in shape to the original chips in order
to better protect them from damage (replacement chips are slightly thicker),
and therefore it is required to modify the chip slot on the cartridge to adequately
hold the replacement chip in place.
1. You will notice that the OEM (original) chip is held in place by a small
plastic protrusion that is holding the chip in place from the bottom of the
chip (see just below the chip, in the middle of the chip). This plastic protrusion
can be depressed easily with a screwdriver or pen tip, releasing
the hold on the chip. The chip will then easily slide downwards,and out.
2. The replacement chip is thicker than the original chip, so the same
plastic protrusion needs to be depressed even more in order to get the
replacement chip to slide in place. The protrusion may need to be physically
bent a little to create the extra space needed to slide the chip place.
