Every time I want to print something the damn ink head is dried up. I
don't print much. So I have to buy a $50.00 print cartridge every
time I want to print 2 pages. I think I should get a rebate on the
ink left in the old cartridge. The cleaning cycle most of the time
don't clear it up.
I'm thinking of going back to dot matrix. Do lasers have the same
drying up problem from lack of use?
I would call an ink jet printer a failed invention if it can't work
on demand. Maybe they need a law suite slapped on them.


I've had some with this problem, the HP 840C I have now has been on the
same cartridge for almost a year now and occasionally goes for months
of disuse.

No, lasers don't dry out, color lasers are expensive but if you do
mostly B&W printing they're great.


You can manage to buy a color laser printer for the price of 10 to 20 ink
cartridges these days.
