This printer will sit idle for days, print a few pages, and then every month or two print several dozen pages. Location is Austin, Texas which is in year 10 of a drought, so low humidity. Not as bad as my mother's high desert scenario, but drying out and clogging is an occasional problem.
Considering ink drying and clogging print-heads raises status of hp inkjets as the print-heads are part of the cartridge, not the printer. But cleaning/clearing clogged print-heads is expensive. Perhaps enought to consider a laser printer.
I would say it's easy enough - we went through exactly that a few years back, and quickly decided to steer clear of inkjets for any printer with low volume. We had a couple of HP All-in-Ones (9000 something) that ended up on the scrap-heap. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (-1.1°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free DNS hosting, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
