How much toner should I put in the cartridge?

Hello,

No matter what type of cartridge you use, if your cartridge has never been refilled before (meaning it is just now showing the toner low message for the first time), the chances of it going through one complete additional use are almost 100%.But, even if the chances are nearly 100% that your cartridge should go through the next full cycle, by dispensing only one-third to one-half of the bottle of toner into the empty cartridge, you are making certain you are going to waste very little, if any, of the inexpensive toner in the unlikely event your empty cartridge "poops" out prematurely.

Obviously, no matter what type of cartridge you use, the likelihood the cartridge is going to "poop out", increases, the more times you refill it. So, the "insurance" you are buying by using only one-third to one-half of the bottle on any given refill becomes more valuable as your cartridge gets older.

(As we like to say, "There is no prize awarded" for completely filling the cartridge during any refilling session. Take it slow, be conservative, use only 1/3 - 1/2 of the bottle of toner during any refilling session and you will save even more money as time goes on. We want you to come back as a "die-hard" Uni-Kit fan (as all of our satisfied customers do!). And, once you try Uni-kit Toner and see for yourself how simple the refill procedure is and how well it works, we know you will be back as long as you own a toner-based printer.)

Remember, once the port is installed in the cartridge, when the "toner low" message appears again, it will only take you a minute or two to add another load of toner.
