Description
The 4x Pack 3ml Ink Refill Syringe & 18G Needle Set provides a simple and practical solution for transferring ink into refillable ink tank printers, refillable cartridges and compatible ink systems.
Supplied as a convenient 4-pack, the set is particularly useful for CMYK ink systems — allowing one syringe to be allocated to Black, Cyan, Magenta and Yellow to help reduce the risk of colour cross-contamination.
Ideal for use with many Epson EcoTank and Canon MegaTank ink tank printers where ink needs to be transferred manually, including situations where different regional ink bottles use different keyed nozzles or filling interfaces.

Simple Solution for Manual Ink Transfer
Modern ink tank printers commonly use specially designed ink bottles with keyed or model-specific filling nozzles. These systems help prevent customers from accidentally filling the wrong colour, but they can also create difficulties when the same or similar printer platform uses different ink bottle interfaces in different regions.
This syringe and needle set provides a straightforward method of manually transferring suitable printer ink from a bottle into an ink tank or refillable cartridge without relying on the bottle's original filling nozzle.
Ideal 4-Pack for CMYK Printers
The pack contains four separate 3ml syringes and four 18G needles, making it particularly convenient for four-colour CMYK printers.
- ✔ 1x Syringe for Black
- ✔ 1x Syringe for Cyan
- ✔ 1x Syringe for Magenta
- ✔ 1x Syringe for Yellow
Using a dedicated syringe for each colour is strongly recommended to minimise cross-contamination between inks.
What's Included
- 4 x 3ml Luer Lock syringes
- 4 x 1-inch 18G needles
Useful for Epson EcoTank Printers
Epson uses different ink bottle families and keyed bottle designs across its EcoTank printer range and across different sales regions.
For example, some international Epson EcoTank models may specify a different Genuine Epson ink bottle number from the equivalent Australian model. Where the ink itself has been confirmed as suitable for the intended printer, this syringe set provides a practical way to manually transfer ink without depending on the original bottle nozzle fitting the printer's ink tank inlet.
Please note: the syringe changes only the method used to transfer the ink. It does not make an otherwise incompatible ink suitable for a printer. Always confirm the correct ink type before filling.
Useful for Canon MegaTank Printers
The set can also be used for manual ink transfer with many Canon MegaTank refillable ink systems, as well as other refillable printer tanks and cartridges where controlled syringe filling is appropriate.
Canon also uses different bottle designs and ink families across its printer range, so customers should always verify that the selected ink is suitable for their particular printer before refilling.
3ml Syringe for Controlled Filling
Each syringe has a 3ml capacity, allowing ink to be transferred in small, controlled amounts.
This can be particularly useful for:
- ✔ Topping up ink tanks
- ✔ Transferring ink between suitable containers
- ✔ Filling refillable ink cartridges
- ✔ Priming compatible ink systems
- ✔ Handling small quantities of printer ink
- ✔ Avoiding uncontrolled pouring and ink spills
18G Needle
Each syringe is supplied with an 18-gauge (18G) needle, providing a practical opening for drawing and transferring printer ink.
The needle allows ink to be drawn directly from suitable bottles or containers and then dispensed in a controlled manner into an appropriate refill opening.
Useful for Regional Ink Bottle Differences
One particularly useful application is where a printer and its Genuine ink are sold under different consumable numbers in different countries.
For example, a customer may have suitable Genuine printer ink available but find that the bottle's keyed nozzle is designed for a different regional printer version. Where the ink has been confirmed as suitable, manual syringe transfer can bypass the physical bottle-nozzle difference.
This syringe set provides a method of transferring ink only. It does not change the formulation or compatibility of the ink. Before filling any printer, always confirm that the ink type, colour and formulation are suitable for your specific printer model. Do not assume that two inks are interchangeable simply because their bottles or colours appear similar.

Why Choose a 4-Pack?
Printer ink contamination can affect colour accuracy and print quality. A four-syringe set makes it easy to dedicate one filling tool to each standard CMYK colour.
For customers regularly maintaining or refilling ink tank printers, keeping separate Black, Cyan, Magenta and Yellow syringes is cleaner and more convenient than repeatedly washing and reusing a single syringe for different colours.
What's Included?
- 4x 3ml Ink Refill Syringes
- 4x 18G Filling Needles
Ink is not included.
Important Safety Information

Frequently Asked Questions
How many syringes are included?
The pack includes four 3ml syringes and four 18G needles.
Why are four syringes useful for printer ink?
A typical colour inkjet printer uses Black, Cyan, Magenta and Yellow ink. Four syringes allow you to dedicate one syringe to each colour, helping prevent cross-contamination.
Can I use these with an Epson EcoTank printer?
They can be used for manual ink transfer with many Epson EcoTank systems where syringe filling is appropriate. Always confirm that the ink being transferred is suitable for your particular Epson printer.
Can I use these with Canon MegaTank printers?
They can also be useful for manual ink transfer with many Canon MegaTank systems. Ink compatibility must still be checked for the specific printer model.
Can this help if my ink bottle nozzle does not fit my printer?
Potentially, yes. A syringe can bypass the physical bottle nozzle by drawing ink from the bottle and transferring it manually. However, you must first confirm that the ink itself is suitable for the printer.
Does using a syringe make different ink types compatible?
No. The syringe only transfers the ink. It does not make an incompatible ink formulation compatible with a printer.
Can I use one syringe for all four colours?
We recommend using a separate syringe for each colour. This reduces the risk of Black, Cyan, Magenta and Yellow inks contaminating each other.
Does this pack include printer ink?
No. This listing is for the 4x syringe and 18G needle sets only. Printer ink is sold separately.
Can I use this set with Genuine Epson or Canon ink?
Yes, the syringe can be used as a manual transfer tool for suitable Genuine printer ink. Always verify that the particular ink is appropriate for the printer being filled.
Are these syringes reusable?
For printer maintenance applications they may be reused if they remain clean and undamaged. For best results, dedicate each syringe to a single ink colour and avoid mixing different ink formulations.
Is this an Epson or Canon Genuine product?
No. This is a generic printer ink refill accessory suitable for use with various refillable ink systems. Epson, EcoTank, Canon and MegaTank are referenced only to describe potential printer applications.
