    Thank you so much, this video was not here the last time I tried this. But because of now working from home, and not checking my ink levels, I need to refill magenta so I searched again and found this, the exact type of cartridge. I also used a Stanley knife but kept the big of plastic on like a flap, and sealed it shut with blu tac and sticky tape on the outside. Just when It finished callobrating, the cyan alert appeared, lucky for me I also bought the wrong cartridge in that colour some ago and never exchanged them. Thanks heaps as I have tried injecting the ink in other locations on the cartridge but to no avail. What a day,I get a fraud call today with someone trying to hack me, but it’s only me doing the hacking ‘round here...

    You are welcome brother, if the cartridge looks almost the same and if your printer accepts reinserted used cartridges then yes you can, just be careful when you are making a hole at the top of the cartridge not to have any debris falling in

    I have not tried that because i do not know how it is constructed from the inside and was afraid to mess it up and damage it, and if damaged, the cartridge will be useless, so i wanted to do the injecting as far away as possible from that hole. But in theory yes, its possible.
