Insert the needle of the syringe into the inkbottle and fill the syringe up to approximately 10 milliliters.

Insert the syringe's needle into the lower hole of the cartridge. Keep pushing the needle inside until it hits the bottom plastic. Pull it back just a bit (this is necessary to prevent spraying and spilling).

Gently press on the syringe' plunger and slowly inject the ink.

Put the label back on the cartridge. If you want to refill any other colors as well, peel off the respective color label; use a clean syringe and needle and follow the same instructions as above.
