The ink cartridge may leak if too much ink has been put in or if it is damaged.

In the event that the ink cartridge leaks heavily, put it on a folded piece of paper or in a paper cup until the leaking stops, then wipe the ink cartridge clean and put it in the printer.

Why does the refilled ink cartridge print out in mixed colors?
This can occur if too much ink was injected when the ink cartridge was refilled.

However, if the colors continue to appear mixed, the colors may be contaminated and the ink cartridge will have to be replaced. You can find ink cartridge replacements here.
