In this video, the presenter provides a detailed guide on how to refill and reinstall ink cartridges for an Epson XP 42000 printer. They begin by identifying the low ink cartridge through the printer’s display panel and advise refilling all cartridges simultaneously. The process involves unlocking the print head using the 'copy' function, unplugging the power cable, and creating a hole above a specific square structure on each cartridge for refilling. They refill the cartridges with the required amount of ink and seal the holes using hot glue to prevent leaks. A syringe is then used to create a vacuum, which helps the ink flow correctly through the cartridge chambers. Finally, the presenter demonstrates the correct installation of the refilled cartridges, including the use of a chip resetter to reset the ink levels, before closing the compartment and plugging in the power cable.

In this part of the video, the presenter demonstrates how to refill the ink cartridges of an Epson XP 42000 printer. They start by identifying which cartridge needs refilling through the printer’s display panel, noting a low black ink level. The presenter advises refilling all cartridges since one low ink level suggests the others might be low as well. They guide the viewer to avoid using the ‘replace cartridge’ option and instead use the ‘copy’ function to unlock the print head, then unplug the power cable to ensure it stays unlocked. The presenter shows how to remove the ink cartridge and create a hole above a specific square structure on the cartridge for refilling. Using either a drill or hot soldering iron, they create a hole, pour in approximately 5 ml of black ink, and mention that some bubbles may emerge during the process.
