Canon ink cartridges are quite expensive. Fortunately, most Canon ink cartridges have holes for refilling, so you’ll save money by replacing the ink yourself. Refilling Canon printer ink is quite simple if you have the right tools. With just the ink refill kit, you can easily refill your Canon printer ink yourself.
Steps
Check that the toner cartridge is empty

- Print another page after running the printhead cleaning program. If the lines still appear, the printer is about to run out of ink.

- You should only shake the toner cartridge very gently. If shaken vigorously, the cartridge will not only be damaged, but also run the risk of slipping out of your hand and breaking.

- Gently wipe through the electronic sensor components inside the printer. Dirt that accumulates on any electronic sensor has the potential to cause failure.
Prepare the toner cartridge

- Contact Canon directly if you cannot find the right tool. Go to https://www.usa.canon.com/internet/portal/us/home/support/self-help-center/contact-us-by-phone to find the contact phone number.
- Note: each printer model will use its own ink refill kit. Canon ink products, although generally quite similar, are sometimes not interchangeable.

- Do not forget to consult the user manual if you do not know how to remove the toner cartridge.
- Do not pull the cartridges if they do not pop out easily. Doing so can damage both the toner cartridge and the printer.

- For color cartridges, there will be 3 holes below the sticker. Each hole will lead to a separate ink compartment.
- Wear gloves for safety when handling knives.
- Gloves will also protect you from ink.

- Check the hole size by inserting the syringe. If the syringe goes through easily, the hole is large enough.
- To save energy, you can use a drill. Note: choose a small drill that fits the hole in the cartridge, and stop as soon as the drill penetrates the plastic.
- With the color cartridge, drill the 3 marked holes.

- You can use a paper towel to wipe the tip of the needle to accurately identify the color in the ink compartment.
Refill and reinstall the toner cartridge

- Canon black ink cartridges usually have a capacity of 7 ml, while color cartridges have a capacity of 3 ml each. However, the exact amount of ink to refill depends on the cartridge type. Find out the cartridge capacity in the manual and draw the correct amount of ink into the syringe. [10] X Research Source
- Do this on top of a rag or in an easy-to-clean place in case ink spills.



- You should use adhesive tape that can be easily removed to facilitate future ink refills. Paper or electrical tape is appropriate. Aluminum foil tape should not be used because of its high tack.

- Double-check that you have installed the toner cartridge in the correct tray.

- For Windows computers, follow the test print steps at https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000123918/how-to-print-a-test-page-in-windows.
- For a Mac, you need to access and test print at https://support.usa.canon.com/kb/index?page=content&id=ART166363&actp=RSS.
Warning
- Ink can stain your skin. If ink gets on it, wash it off immediately.
