drilled. In future fills it’ll be necessary to clear the hole
each time over the reservoir in order for the needle to
enter. Generally that will mean using the drill again as the
glue will go down into the hole a bit.
If you don’t get a good seal with the glue over the fill hole,
ink will immediately begin to run out of the exit hole on the
bottom. I tried using electrical tape as others have
suggested, and even though it was applied very tightly, it
didn’t seal. The glue does, and is easy to use. Only
problem with it is the need to clear the fill hole each time
you want to refill. The tape would have been more
convenient, but that’s the way it goes!!!

Caveat:

I haven’t tried this with any other Canon printer so can’t
vouch for this method with any other than the i860. Seems
that it ought to work on any with this tank system though,
but you’ll have to try for yourselves.

Good printing :-)
