I recently was given an HP J3640 Officejet printer.


This printer uses 21 and 22 ink carts. *To reset the carts, see
instructions at:

and many more. *Refilling carts that have been empty for a long time
usually doesn't work well. *I have various tricks for cleaning the
heads, but my batting average is about 50%. *In the future, try to
refill before the cart runs completely dry.

Thanks for the great tips guys. I'm going to top off the red and
yellow and do the reset. BTW I did try to get to that site Spamtrrap
suggested and I got a 404 error message. Don't know if there is
another door. Lenny
