The other day, my several times refilled ink cartridge stopped working.
I filled it up some more, but that was apparently not the problem.

So I held my finger over the "extra" hole I had burned in it for refilling,
and I blew into the top hole (in the green plastic part) pressurizing
the internal ink supply (I held the printhead downward.)

This fixed the problem, and I haven't had a recurrance in the last
month or so.
