QuestionHow long will the cartridges last with minimal printing? Does the ink tend to dry up when the printer is not used often? Is this printer capable of making photocopies as well as printing from a computer?
- Answer Hi there, to get the most out of your ink cartridges you should make sure to always leave the printer powered on (It uses less power than your doorbell when on standby) so it can complete any maintenance on the cartridges to keep them from drying out. Your ink cartridges should last 8 months in the printer or until you print the estimated yield of these cartridges which is a little below 150 pages. This printer can copy as well as scan and print!
