Still, nothing new here. In fact, by choice, we do not do any of these cartridges for our retail customers. There are too many problems associated with doing these low-priced cartridges which justifies not soliciting business in this cartridge group. What looks like a goldmine on the surface, rapidly turns into a pain in the neck. As for the remanufacturing technique, we use the same supplies and same techniques as before from Rechargers in Ben Wheeler, Texas.

(Note: At a recent ULTRA show in Chicago, we saw a company that specialized in refilling inkjet/deskjet cartridges. The process they go through to refill these things is quite impressive. They suck the old ink out of them in a vacuum, clean out the entire cartridge with a special solution, seal them with a proprietary seal and then refill them under pressure. Their success rate is supposedly much higher than that of the average "syringe-style" refill. While we have not tried their products, it should give you an idea of why these things can be so problem-prone when you try to refill them.)

PLEASE NOTE: We are always ready, willing and able to provide technical support to any of our trainees on any of the cartridges we have taught them to remanufacture. In order to make your interaction with tech support as productive and beneficial as possible, we make two assumptions: We assume that you have followed our procedures to the letter and used the supplies we recommended during the remanufacturing process. If a cartridge is remanufactured in a manner other than what we prescribe or with supplies other than the ones we recommend, the extent of our technical support can only be "generic" in nature, since we will have no firsthand experience with either the methods or supplies in question. In addition, we assume that you have already done your "swaps" (as outlined in the troubleshooting section for each cartridge) and that you will be able to answer questions based on the results of those swaps before you call and ask for help. We appreciate your understanding in this matter.
