134495 2003-04-09 04:37:00 To those of you who responded...thanks ...and I can report a limited degree of success. It is now flowing but is not too bright but can be used in a pinch. I did the hot water in a bowl thing with a touch of janola. Did this 4 times with a head clean and prime each time. I am now heading down the road of refills to get the cost down.
Am regretting trashing the other cart though.
cheers.

134496 2003-04-09 05:12:00 Refills will probably cause you even more grief, and re your earlier post, I can't understand why a sealed cartridge wouldn't have a shelf life of several years.

I left a Canon Inkjet unused for a couple of years and it fired up on all nozzles first print. Unfortunately I later used compatible ink cartridges instead of OEM and the print heads died within a month. :(

Cheers

HP cartridges don't come in a sealed container only with an adhesive tape over the head and that is probably why they dry out.
