Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.We've never had a problem with the ink cartridges drying out. Maybe you're storing them in a hot dry place and that's causing a problem; not sure if they can be reversed?

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You would need to print at least a page or two every other day. Clean the printer regularly. I had the same issue when I used to buy bulk ink from costco, such a waste.
