How Do You Fill A Black Ink Cartridge For A Lexmak X5100?
The Lexmark X5100 printer uses the Lexmark 82 black ink cartridges. This cartridge model is very similar to several other Lexmark ink cartridges, including the 16, 17, 70, 71 and 75, so refilling it is the same as any of them. The cartridge is sealed tight, but getting into the ink chamber is fairly simple. You can then use any ink refill kit with a plastic syringe bottle to refill the cartridge with any black ink to get the cartridge running again, saving you time and money while reducing waste. Create a hole in the cartridge’s lid. Melting a hole works best because there will be no shavings to clog the cartridge. Use the tip of a paper clip after super-heating it on a flame. You can also drill a hole using a 1/16-inch drill bit. Make the hole near the “E” in the “LEXMARK” logo on the lid. Set aside a workspace to refill the cartridge. Lay numerous paper towels on the surface to deal with any spills. Leave the cartridge on the towels when not immediately in use. Fill a syringe bottle
