Usually you can install a CISS on almost all printers. A condition is that you should have enough space near the cartridges to connect the inside cartridges with the external ink tanks or reservoirs. The printers that work very well with this system are Epson, Canon and HP, but this doesn’t mean that you cannot install the continuous ink supply system on other printers. The printers mentioned before are the best to install CISS and work without problems, but not on all models.

If you want to see if you can install a continuous ink supply system on your printer you have to make sure that you have a separated print head. If the print head is a part of the cartridge the system may not work properly. If you are going to install a bulk ink system to your printer, you will have better results. No more cartridges, means actually no more money on cartridge replacement that can be expensive. You have to check on the manual of your printer if the print head is attached to the cartridge, or look inside your printer.

Because you have to connect the external tanks with the internal cartridges or bulk ink system, you need to have enough space around the cartridge tube in order to let the tubing run freely, without restrictions. No more cartridges can resolve the problem if you install bulk ink systems or continuous ink supply systems. The installation of continuous ink supply system can take between 10 and 30 minutes, all depending on your printer’s model. The continuous ink supply system comes with everything you need to install your CISS.

If you can’t install the CISS after the tutorial, you can search on the internet for video tutorials, but be careful to choose the right printer model, because you may not find all the components inside your printer. Video tutorials explain step by step what you have to do, so do not miss the steps. If you somehow want to return to classical cartridges, you can do this anytime. But you will save money with no more cartridges in your printer, or you can keep your cartridge and use the continuous ink supply system.

If you want to install a continuous ink supply system, you should keep in mind that the printer you have bought needs to have a remote print head and also a good print head cleaning mechanism. No more cartridges can help you saving money on ink and also on buying genuine or aftermarket cartridges. You can install CISS at almost every printer model, but there are several models can’t be converted to CISS. The printer models that do not respect the minimum requirements to install continuous ink supply system are very hard to be converted, but not impossible.
