how to refill lexmark color 27 cartridge?
93941
I have refilled lexmark 27 carts. There are no holes. You have to make them yourself. If you buy a refilled cartridge, you will see where they belong. I finally gave up doing it, too messy and did not last long.

Go to add/remove hardware in your controll panel, click the button that says you connected the device, it shows a list, if the printer isn't listed go to the bottom where it says add a new device, then you click on printers on the list, then you click on "have disk" in the box that comes up bring up the folder (or disk) that you downloaded the drivers into, and there you have it! IM me if you need any more help.

It's a communist plot. Same as the oil companies. Once they've got you, they've got you.\n\nI refill my own Epson cartridges and there is something socially uplifting when I do it. I got a refill kit from Costco and I think it's going to last for YEARS. I'm a printing fool now. It really frees you to think that it's almost free to print full colour pictures. And I bought Costco print paper, much cheaper and equal in quality to those Kodak weasels.\n\nMy Epson photo 820 has a proprietary chip, so I bought a $5.00 (don't pay more) chip resetter on line.\n\nAs far as HP goes, there is a scotch-tape trick to resetting the cartridge to fool the printer into thinking it's a brand new, one million dollar qenuine HP printer cartridge. Same thing probably goes for Lexmark, but I haven't had to mess with my Lexmark printer/scanner/fax yet.\n\nWear gloves when refilling cartridges or you'll resemble a bank robber who grabbed the dye-pack.

If you have gone to the trouble of replacing both the black to no avail then unfortunately the contacts inside the printer are shot.     The only thing to do is replace the printer.   You can pick up very inexpensive printers new these days.  Or in a pinch pick up a comparable printer at a pawn shop so you can still use the cartridges you have purchased.\n\nLuckily for you, but not to the general public lexmark made a bunch of printers that take the 16/26  I have seen them as low as $5 as cash converters.

Lexmark has online customer support feature that may have the answer to your question.  You can look up information on your specific model.  Start here: \nhttp://support.lexmark.com/cgi-perl/selections.cgi?ccs=229:1:0:0:0:0&target=http://support.lexmark.com/cgi-perl/support.cgi&&req=:::::

First make sure there is any ink coming out of the cartridge.  Dab it on a moist paper towel to see if you get the three colors.  If you do, then try completely resetting your printer.  Turn off your printer, unplug it and then leave it that way for at least a minute.  This clears the memory so that it shouldn't think you are still using the same empty cartridge.  \n\nIf these don't work, there is a chance that you just have to get another cartridge.  If the print head (the shiny copper portion) is scratched or damaged in any way, then your printer won't be able to read the cartridge.

Best bet might be to read the instructions on the refill kit?

Download the driver/software at www.lexmark.com and then connect the printer/copier via the USB or Parrallel cable.  If you have the wrong connection type, get an adaptor at RadioShack.

You don't.\n\nThe cartridge has a chip on it which tell the printer the cartridge is empty.  Unless that chip is reset there is no way a refilled cartridge will work in the printer.

I don't know what the person above me just said, but I would stay away from refill kits. Some printers use pressurized cartridges and you want no part of that, not to mention they void your warranty. Go online and find the best price for the oem cartridges.
