In this part of the video, the focus is on the process of preparing and refilling printer cartridges. The speaker explains that it’s best to handle one cartridge at a time to avoid confusion due to differences in print heads and nozzles between black and color cartridges. Additionally, the speaker discusses methods to identify which color corresponds to each slot, such as using a toothpick to check the color in the sponge. The use of a drill bit, either manually or with a power tool, to create holes in the cartridges is demonstrated, although it is noted that it can be challenging. Once the holes are drilled, the cartridge is placed in a refill clip with a rubber piece to prevent ink spillage.
