Help! As a stingy bastard and starving college student, I decided to try and refill my DeskWriter cartridge when it went dry. I got the syringe, 1.5" needle, and ink, and put 10cc of ink back in the cartridge. Everything seemed to be fine last night, but today, nothing will come out again. I am afraid that the ink in the cartridge dried up overnight. I used non-waterproof india ink, as I could not find Schaffer Scrip ink...was that my (fatal?) mistake? Is there any way I can, without damaging my cartridge, clean the ink out and put better ink in? Thanks in advance. Brian
