How to Refill HP 74 Cartridges
The HP 74 is an inkjet cartridge used in HP's home desktop printers. It is capable of holding up to 20 ml of black ink. If your HP 74 cartridge is empty, you may chose to refill the cartridge with an inkjet refill kit instead of buying a replacement cartridge. Doing so is a straightforward process that only takes a few minutes to accomplish.
