We have to put the Refill in a pot, add some water an boil it.
Let It Suck !
After all the air leaked from the refill - this will take about 2min boiling - take tweezers and pick the refill at the end and put it into the inkpot (or pot with ink in it). Wait until chilled to room tempertaure. Ready.
Generalizations & Extensions
Now we know the principle: Make it hot so that air expands, make it cool so that air contracts and sucks ink into the refill.
What if our rollerball pen has no refill - Yes it's its own refill. Take the whole pen. Remove all removable parts and do the same procedure. I testet this with the uni-ball. It got a bit banana-shaped but its still fine.
