Ship Us Your Cartridges for Reloading:

When you ship us your used cartridges, we will refill them with new colors of your choice at a reduced cost. Save money this way while assuring yourself the quality of ZeroNine filling them for you. You must send us your cartridges prior to ordering. We keep a running inventory of cartridges you send to us, so you will always be able to order in carts whenever you so choose.

If You Have No Cartridges:

Buy the cartridges from ZeroNine when placing your next order. They are then loaded for you and the cartridges are then yours to reuse again and again.

Refilling the Cartridges Yourself:

Please refer to our diagram below.

1.) Use a razor knife to slice off the spent ribbon from the take up spool.
2.) Use pruning sheers to cut at 1 o'clock on the cartridge's drive end.
3.) Cut again at 3 o'clock. Angle it downward so you remove the cartridge's tooth.
4.) The new opening should look something like this. The part removed is also shown here.
5.) The easiest way to get the spool out is to twist/roll it out as shown.
6.) Transfer the caps to the new core. Align the tabs with the slots, insert completely.
7.) Twist/roll the ribbon into the cartridge. Make sure it will unwind correctly.
8.) Pull the ribbon across and tape it to the take up spool as shown. Wind it one turn.
9.) You're done. Go print.
