Oh dear, there's no help for that problem. We did a poll on Fountain Pen Network a couple years ago and the average was 80 different inks in an average collection. I am very conservative and only have 18 different inks.

Thanks for the reply (though it wasn't me who posted this, even though I am signed in). I'll pass your message on. Wow that's a high average.

@beswick1111 One way is an inkjet printer refill kit, which includes such a blunted syringe like the one in the video. There are sellers on eBay who sell just the syringe designed for refilling inkjet cartridges. Those are fine.

Nobody is forcing you to use a cartridge, use what you like. There are two reasons I prefer refilling carts. 1) A cart holds far more ink than a converter. I cannot get through a full day on a single converter. 2) Certain inks that I like cling strongly to the smooth acrylic or styrene plastic of a converter and the pen often "stalls". Carts made from polyethylene do not have this problem. This has been discussed in detail on Fountain Pen Network.
