   I got mine in a refill kit, Inktek I think. Came with a bracket to hold   
   the cart, and a way to use a fourth syringe to draw ink through the   
   nozzle passages to clear out an air bubble that can form if the ink runs   
   out. Works well, especially with the black. I used to be able to get a   
   syringe and needle from my veterinarian if I had a need, but it's been a   
   while since I asked.
