The computer uses infra red technology to read the tanks and can report the amount of ink remaining to you using the software “setup utility). Another ...
drilled. In future fills it’ll be necessary to clear the hole each time over the reservoir in order for the needle to enter. Generally that will mean using the drill again as the glue will go down into the hole a bit.If you don’t get a good seal with the glue over the fill hole, ink will immediately...
