Shalom, Max!
I've been refilling my Lexmark 7200 with
aftermarket inks for about 18 months with perfect results. The 7200 is
esentially the same as the 5700. The Black cartridge just gets a hole in
the top where you can just shoot the ink in, the color cartridge must
have the red top removed, which can be done easily with a little muscle
and a set of pliers. I guess you could also do it with an x-acto knife,
should you desire. once open, the proper fill holes are very obvious.
You get 4-5 refills out of a cartridge before the built in print head is
too worn to use. At that point, the cartridge is useless, you toss it
and open a new one.. The key is to get your ink from a reliable source.
I have a digital camera and print a lot of pictures, so the refilling is
a necessity for me. The prints from the refilled cartridge and the ones
from a factory filled cartridge are virtually identical. Good luck, my
friend.
Please feel free to e-mail me should you wish for more information on
this.
