hi,

I just bought a canon 7100 colour/blk printer off a friends brother.

I never spoke to the brother, but to my friend (confused?)

anyway, I have this good printer and when I connected it to my pc (running
xp) the error button came on and the printer beeped xxx about of times and I
think the problem is the blk cartridge is out of ink.

With the printer came these 2 "squirter bottles of ink.

I think they are to fill the cartridges up, but how do u do it?

Where do u put those fine needles in?

Is there some diagram that can show me?

one cartridge has blk & a clear fluid, the other 3 colours.

I am sure it is the blk because i took the colour one out and ink started to
run out..woops!

Can some one please guide me the right way with this.

All my other printers I bought the cartridges, but these ones seem very
big....

thanks for any help .
