    Hi all, I got 3 Printer cartridges (Hp21 Black) refill on tuesday and when i inserted them all into the printer, it said E (empty) and would not accept them. i've had them filled before and the worked fine, they are all 6-12months old now, i then inserted a new one and i worked no problem so i know printer is not faulty,

    Can't think what the problem is? any thoughts, suggestions or solution greatly appreciated thanks, lasereye

    Bring them back!!!

    There's an electrical charge on the contacts of those cartridges & the re-filler is meant to meter that prior to filling. If the charge is low all you end up with is a pot of ink.
