Everyone already knows they are getting ripped off buying new ink cartridges. What I didn't know was how easy and inexpensive it is to refill your own. I am using an hp 60 black ink cartridge that ran completely dry:

Using my kit on a paper plate I added 9 ml of ink all over inside my hp60 black cartridge. The cartridge has foam to hold the ink, and the syringe needle pokes down in it through a hole in the top. To expose the hole, remove the label, which doesn't have to be replaced when done. Ink will leak from the bottom of the cartridge, just dab that on a paper towel until you have cleaned off the excess:

Then, replace the cartridge in your printer and try it out. My kit told me to wait 8 hours for the sponge in the cartridge to saturate, injecting the ink in different parts of the sponge to begin with expedites the waiting period. I printed immediately:

The best part, a $15 kit will fill your cartridge 60 times! Ya, we are getting ripped off by the printer manufacturers. This $15 refill kit is specifically for inkjet and deskjet printers and will save you hundreds before it is gone:
