I did the refill kit thing with my Apple Stylewriter. It's a big syringe
full of ink that you inject into the cartidge. The first one I used
worked fine, but I'm assuming I did something wrong with the second one,
since now my printer streaks. Even after cleaning the head.

So I guess the moral is: There's a chance of error when doing it yourself.
