Pleasantly surprising results and value, though stuck on “Low Ink” mode.
By Preston Lee
After various horrid experiences with aftermarket ink and toner refill schemes with assorted printers and brands, I purchased this “InkTec” kit with low expectations. The end results of my refilled PG-210XL are breathtakingly good taking into account the big price divergence versus the selling Canon cartridges, and the volume of ink included seems to be sufficient for 3-4 finish refill cycles.
The provided instructions are reasonable clear, altho unquestionably foreign. If you’ve never attempted such a task before, you’ll need a steady hand and an area suitable for working with the little syringe and (staining!) ink packs.
The kit comes with a pair of cheap plastic gloves (not pictured) like the ones that come with hair dye kits, but since you’ve working with dyes and little tools you will inevitably spill a few dabs. Prepare for it and you’ll be fine.
My biggest complaint with this refill approach is not the product itself, but that the primary PG-210XL cartridge–paired with my printer, at least–does not detect that the ink has been refilled since the cartridges were not designed for user servicing. My specific printer (Canon MP480) still reports “Low Ink” in spite of galore hard resets, reinsertions etc. Again, this has not one thing to do with the kit nor quality of the ink, but this will have to have been disclosed in the product information. Since the printer always reports “Low Ink”, you’re software has no way of determining when you will have to refill it again. This will unquestionably bother a good deal of people.

Good option for refills!
By R. Bunds
I picked this up to refill my black Canon 210 cartridges. I have applied InkTec kits before and they all come with the same general components. Refilling a empty cartridge is as easy as placing the sticker on, making a little hole and putting the cartridge into the holder. You refill, suction out a little from the bottom and you are good to print!
My only complaint is I wish they would include a pair of cheap latex gloves rather of the flimsy sandwich bag kind you tend to see in hair coloring kits. The kit will refill a general 210 cart when it comes to 4-5 times, so you can’t beat the price as a 210 Canon cart is over $20.
One tip, make sure you refill over a good deal of old newspaper or in a sink with running water. Do not let any spilled ink sit on a surface, wipe it away as soon as possible if you spill any.

Great Product!
By Michael T. Longfellow
I had my doubts going in since I’ve applied merchandise like this before with mixed results. Bottom line is it worked great! Follow the directions carefully. They’re printed in so galore languages that it was a little mixing up (thus 4 rather of 5 stars). Printer will never see the cartridge as full and I had to reset the printer so that it would carry on to print (a simple matter elaborate in the instructions). Printed results are excellent.
