The number of times you may refill a cartridge varies depending on the
cartridge. In most cases, you can refill your ink cartridge about 8 to
10 times depending on the cost, this could save you between $300 and
$400.
It is important to refill an inkjet cartridge before it runs dry.
Once a cartridge has dried out, it is usually too late to refill it.
These inkjet cartridges have soft materials such as internal sponges
that can harden without the moisture provided by the presence of ink.
Streaking can usually indicate that your printer ink is running out.
Printing a test page can further inform you which colors are running low
and need to be refilled. If the ink cartridge does run dry - refill it
as soon as possible. Otherwise, the inkjet cartridge will dry out and block the print head.
