Description
JetMaster®
describes a family of inkjet cartridge refill kits. The system is similar for
each inkjet refill kit. What varies is the color of the printer ink, the number
of ink bottles per kit (five, for example, in some color kits), and the type of
ink. All inkjet refill kits include as many printer inks and dispensers as
present in the original jet print cartridges for which they apply. We have
standard and fade-resistant pigmented jet inks available. Please inquire at time of order if
fade-resistant pigmented ink is suitable for your print cartridge.
As more print machines come onto the market, our listing of JetMaster®
kits grows. If you do not find your print machine in the current price list, please
phone us 1-888-741-3119 . Inkjet refill kits include ink for an
average of 6 to 10 refills. After the
initial inkjet refill kit, you just buy ink in the quantities and
colors needed. This makes the cost per recharge very low. And.... since you do
not discard the cartridge nor the dispenser(s), you are friendly to the
environment.
Operation
In general, the operation involves three steps:
1. Remove jet print cartridge from the printer.
2. Load dispenser with jet ink.
3. Insert dispenser into appropriate filling hole and release the ink.
Print cartridge can be refilled by laying it on a flat surface or by holding it in
one hand.
The operation is really simple, but we provide clear
instruction booklets with each JetMaster®
kit to satisfy the desires of the most curious or cautious. Some jet print cartridges are refillable without modifications. Some require minor
modifications. When so, our inkjet refill kits contain the materials and
instructions necessary to modify the print cartridges as needed.

Notes
Recharging an jet print cartridge is very
easy. The crucial ingredient, of course, is the jet ink which must have some
specific chemical characteristics. Our inks are distinctively composed to
be chemical and physical matches to the original inks in your print cartridges.
And, very importantly, they are filtered so as to contain no particulates (the
tolerance is even tighter than with dot matrix ink). Ink must contain no
contaminants or chemicals that may react with the printhead element and must
have anti-coagulant characteristics. All our inks comply with or
exceed the original manufacturer's specifications.
Apart from the quality of the ink, the
life of a printer cartridge depends on how cleanly the jet printer head is
maintained. Best results are obtained by recharging a printer cartridge
before it becomes completely dry. A completely dried jet print cartridge may
accumulate particles near the jet printer head micro channels and recovery (typically
by soaking) requires a measure of patience.
How many times can a printer cartridge be
refurbished?
In general, between 10 and 18 times. The more you
print, the more you save. Since we do all of our own printing
in-house, we are very familiar with the recharging process and success of our
Refill Kits. Our print cartridges have been very well-used by the time they
are ready for replacement. Some of our buyers have mentioned that they
refurbished the same jet print cartridge as many as 25 times. The variation
depends on the way the jet print cartridge is handled and your print machine usage.
Can I damage the jet printer head if I recharge the print cartridge?
For many print machines, the print cartridge contains
the jet printer head. jet print cartridges are more affected by the care taken in
handling them than the specific ink used. Care includes, for example, protecting
the gold laminated jet printer head surface from abrasive handling and contact with
fingers, storing the print cartridge in a sealed environment when not in use, etc.
It is, however, still foundational to use cartridge-matched inks for
proper print quality (hue, tone, clarity, etc.).
Do manufacturers consider the print cartridges
disposable after one use? Why don't they provide refurbished cartridges?
Very few manufacturers provide inks for their own
print cartridges, although this would be extremely beneficial to buyers and the
environment. Even if they provide ink for recharging, it is very
expensive when available.
Considering the borderline exorbitance of jet print cartridge costs, one can see
why manufacturers would want to do everything possible to keep buyers chained
to the idea of buying new genuine OEM print cartridges every time the ink monitor
dictates.
Why are manufacturer's inks so
expensive (if available at all)? Are their inks different from yours?
No. Our inks comply with or exceed the
manufacturer's specifications.
