I am getting the ink from Atlantic Inkjet. I have a Canon i560.
Also, the best way to fill and seal the cartridges? I went through
one black already. I got the printer for Christmas.

Thanks

Mike

I use AtlanticInkjet too.

If you buy the refill kits first, then you will get all the tools you
need to fill and seal the cartridges. Then you can buy bulk ink and
extra seals to refill again later.

Basically you remove the "Canon" label on the top of the ink tank, then
use the small "screw" tool to pull out the plastic ball bearing seal in
the fill hole. Use the syringe to refill to about 90% full, and then
push in one of the new plastic ball bearings to seal the hole.

This whole procedure takes about 10 minutes the first time for the first
ink tank while you figure out the procedure. Then it takes about one
minute per tank once you get the hang of it...very easy and no mess.
 
instead of using adhesive seals to seal the cartridge, ifollowed a hint, and
use a hot glue gun and drop a dollop of it across the opening. the adhesive
seals never worked well in my experiences but i've never had a problem with
the hot glue dollop. plus it snaps off easy for another refill.
