Dudes my ink-jet is out of ink. And instead of buying a new one i wanna do some kind of experimental stuff. I want to refill it. I have Hp-3900 series printer. With 21-Cartridge. I've already gather some tips and ready to be myself in it but i wanna ask about the ink. How do i figure out the Ink ??? just black ? or there is any specific Ink bottle are available in market?

There is only one kind of ink. It fills in every printer.

Go to uni plaze and get the ink. Itll cost you a few hundered rupees for black. That shud last you for years...

I never did this work at Home because I don't want to damage the InkJet Cartridge Dabbi :D
You can get it refilled from market. In Lahore, they charge you Rs.150-200 for Black and Rs.300-400 for Colored.

And one more thing ... InkJet cartridges get Dry fast if you dont use it often (usually within 2 days) so you Had to use it daily, 3 or 4 pages are must. Both Cartridge boxes of my DeskJet are wasted because Ink now stuck dried in boxes and now the Cartridge Boxes need repairing for which they charge you extra 400 Rs. :S

piece of advice; never repair in case of coloured ink!
the colour shades are just awful after reapir...
Who said I got it repaired :p

I bought a Laser Jet worth Rs.20k after that and I am much happy with it :p

That DeskJet is still lying around. 2500 Rs. for a New Cartridge for DeskJet (InkJet) ... A BIG Freakin' NOO
Refilling only works for those people who are using it professionally, because they use their Printers on Daily basis.
It will work for him too if he want to use it Daily without a Single day's Break.

Oh & After Repairing, they actually Replace the Strip Under the Cartridge's Tip, which is the main reason of awful colors. Incase of Black, it does not affect it much.

Refilled :D Perfectly :D Its working fine. After refilling i put the Cartridge next day but print quality was not better. Then i dip my Cartridge in hot water for 10mits and guess it is working like new:D
" If you holes are stuck then try to dip your Printing side of your Cartridge in Boiling water for 10mints then dry it with towel and re-put it. It may work now :D

^ OMG OMG OMG
You really tried that procedure? :S
How you even managed to dip "only the tip" of the cartridge?

LOL ... I tried that once. And after 10 minutes when I tried to use it ... i found out it is DEAD :D
It wasn't responding in the Printer lol
That was the case with Black Cartridge box. The Color one is still lying around inside that Printer which is more like a Dabba to me now lol :D

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.

    did you try setting up Google Payments? For UBL you may have to get it enabled for internet transactions, Naya should work without it!

    I tried both NayaPay, and UBL, but I keep getting "correct country selected..." error. I already have PK set there 🤦‍♂️
