If you still have an error condition which prohibits printing, then the ink cartridge probably has internal
electrical damage (micro-electronics failure); such a failure is unrelated to the ink cartridge refilling
process. Typically, when the cartridge fails the problem is 'masked' by the ink out/empty condition so it
can be difficult to distinguish between the two. Many cartridges eventually do encounter problems or
failures, especially after their original ink is gone and they are re-used, and this is often unrelated to the
refill process (i.e. typically ~2 years from original manufacturing date). Refer to picture at bottom of this
