Can somebody tell me that it is okay using dye ink on a pigment-based cartridge/printer.

 

So it's too late to know that HP 678 Black cartridge uses pigment-based ink. The HP 678 Tri-color uses dye-based ink.

 

I already refilled dye-based ink over the black cartridge.

 

Will my printer still works without problem?

 

Is it okay to refill again pigment-based black ink after I emptying the refilled dye-based ink?

 

I have been watching tutorials on youtube on refilling HP 678 but no one told that HP 678 Cartridge uses pigment-based ink.

 

Can I just suction all the dye-based ink that I refilled so it will be empty? and then refill again pigment-based ink?

 

Can I use dye ink to refill HP 678 which uses pigment ink?

 

Also, I refilled the two holes on the lower part of the cartridge. Some tutorials on youtube (which I first watched) refilled all the holes, but I watched now that only the three upper holes should refill.

 

Would that still be okay using it?

 

HP 678 Black Cartridge uses pigment-based ink. Can I use dye-based ink to refill it? 

 

Can I use GT53 Black Pigment ink to refill the cartridge?

 

Can I use pigment-based ink for other brand of printers? It's really hard to find pigment-based ink for HP printers/cartridges.
