Actually a month and two weeks, but yea, mine is exactly the same way. If I push it down, it doesn't work. I have to keep it up for it to work...

Wow, I definitely forgot about this thread...

Anyway, I tried the sanding method to no avail. I guess I'll just have to buy a new cartridge connector on eBay. That *should* solve the problem.

Fight MS Paint abominations! If you don't have a camera, go here, and pick something 3 megapixels or higher.
