LD Products InkTec Refill Kit for Canon PGI5BK Black

Canon PGI5BK Black Inkjet refill kit includes the following: Two 20 ml bottles of black ink for 2 refills Two injection needles A manual, a screw tool, and a pair of plastic gloves. Take advantage of the great savings by refilling your cartridge twice with Ink refills for your Canon PGI-5BK !InkTec inkjet cartridge refill kits allow you to refill your existing empty ink cartridge. Why buy a new or remanufactured ink cartridge when you can refill the cartridge you have for much less money? Each kit includes the ink, tools and instructions to refill your empty inkjet cartridge and get printing again quickly. It is always a good idea to refill cartridges that have just ran out of ink. You also shouldnt try to keep printing on an empty cartridge as it will burn out of the printheads on your ink cartridge. All inkjet cartridge print quality will eventually fade but by keeping your cartridge full of ink and printing regularly you should be able to get a few cycles with one cartridge before buying a new or remanufactured ink cartridge.

love the alternative to paying for individual cartridges by getting these refills. The only downside is that the chips will not reset. For that, I keep old cartridges and swap them out each time I use the refills so that the machine is tricked into thinking it has a new cartridge/chip.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Returned this product after the horrible experience with the other refill kit. Good luck if you decide to order this. I myself will go back to ordering the individual cartridges.
No, I do not recommend this product.

The refill packs were very well designed with the things one would need to refill cartridges. However, the instructions were a little confusing. The English language instructions were in several places on the instructions sheet. And the tool to remove the ball in the cartridge was difficult to use. But now I know how to do it and will be confident the next time I use the refills. I still recommend refills for those who are hands on and certainly the regular LD-supplied cartridges for those who are not. LD is a good source to deal with and prompt in shipping and tracking.
Yes, I recommend this product.

I have used this product a couple of times now. Once you get used to it, it's a way to save money on computer ink by refilling your own tanks. The rubber plugs supplied with the kit don't always fit LD style tanks very snugly and some leakage might occur. I have to use a piece of masking tape over the rubber plugs to ensure that they won't come out. I wish just the ink refill bottles would be available for sale by themselves! It shouldn't be necessary to buy the tools, such as the awl and the refill needles everytime you buy ink. The refill tanks by themselves are well designed and don't leak, but the holders and rubber plugs that work with the tanks are in need of improvement. Maybe they work better with original Canon tanks rather than the LD variety. Overall, though, it saves money to refill your own tanks.
No, I do not recommend this product.
