All K7 cartridges are designed for refilling. The usual method is to use a syringe and the vacuum method through the small silicon plug on the top of the cartridge through which we initially fill the cart. Temporarily tape over the vent hole. Fill a clean syringe with about 15ml of ink, insert it into the cart, draw out a vacuum, replace the vacuum with the contents of the syringe. It may take more than one attempt due to the introduction of foamy ink. But, if you draw your vacuum slowly through the ink in the syringe, or invert the cart so it does not draw through the ink, you should be able to replace the vacuum without introducing foam. Any foam will go away with an hour anyway. Then reset the chip, remove the tape and away you go. Most of our carts hold 21ml ink, but EPSON chip readers in their printers will not allow more than the use of about 14ml. So you should be refilling a cartridge which still has some ink contents. This unfortunately is normal.
