There are two simple ways to remove ink from a 4800 cartridge.

1) Prise off the top cover, lift out the bag, snip the corner off and
pour into a bottle, such as a Nalgene bottle.

2) Put a very short length of plastic tubing onto a syringe and make a
slanting cut at the end of the tube. Jab the syringe and tube into the
 valve of the cartridge and suck the ink out. You needn't have a
bottle: you can just fill the R2400 cart from the syringe.

I use method 1), but I have also tried method 2).

Best,
Helen
