How to fix a laser printer cartridge

No one doubts that the domestic and working printer is a very necessary thing. However, ink cartridges quickly end and are worthy of decent money. Therefore, users have a natural question about whether it is possible to refuel them on their own. Below we will tell you how to do it.

If white stripes appeared on the printed document - it means that the printer is time to refill. To urgently send several important and urgent pages to print, we use a small trick. It will make it possible to get decent quality for about 5-10 documents. Just get the cartridge and shake it a little a couple of times, after returning to the place.

Half of the case with an independent refueling - the choice of high-quality ink. It is better to buy a toner specifically designed for these tasks sold in famous stores. We take into account the fact that universal "paints" does not exist - the toner will have to be selected according to the printer type. After purchase, be sure to store the container tightly closed, at room temperature (in the range of 20-30 degrees of heat). Avoid entering the liquids that can spoil the toner structure and make it difficult to refuel. Chemical substance in itself is very harmful to the human body. So ensure maximum protection: mask covering the respiratory organs, goggles, rubber gloves. Useful precaution will exhaust, or drafts, are effectively removed from the premises the effects of our work.

Next, the refueling process depends on the design of the cartridge. Some need to be disassembled to fall asleep toner, others are equipped with a special hole with a plug, which is easy to pull out. Some professionals advise just to drill a hole in the case of a disassembled cartridge and provide it with a plug for simplicity. However, in this case, you can easily damage the device, it will have to refuel it more often and faster on peace (possibly, along with the printer). Since the design of cartridges is very diverse, just read the instructions for the printer to find out how and what is understandable. Please note: do not touch the working part of the drum, even in gloves - this item is very easy to damage and bring it out.

When the toner is covered in the cartridge, and the latter is tightly closed, gently shake it so that the paint is evenly distributed over the entire surface. If suddenly the ink crumbled, in no case collect it with a vacuum cleaner. It is better to store the entire working area with old newspapers, and then throw them away into the trash. Before returning all the details into legal places, wipe them with a dry, pure napkin or lounge cloth.

If the printer does not recognize the refilled cartridge, it is possible that it is incorrectly inserted, or the printhead contacts occurred. Gently wipe their alcohol. In addition, each cartridge is supplied with chip to control the level of ink. Therefore, after refueling manually, it will be necessary to circumvent this protection. It all depends on the printer model, since there are various software for each device. There are also physical unblockers on sale, or separate new chips for replacement.

Not necessarily to change the ink manually. Any service center will spend on this work from 10 to 15 minutes for a completely democratic price. At the same time, your home will remain clean and the order, and the device is completely accurate - in working condition.
