Hey brother... Thanks for using my coupon on farm-skins... Greetings from Brazil!

Hey how's it going

The printer will show that there is ink in the cartridges if it is not empty. If you do not use the printer for more than a month, the ink near the nozzles will dry up and block further flow of ink. Hence, it will not print.



Henceforth, if you are not using the printer for a month, then remove the cartridges and keep it in a zip lock bag or a plastic container and then install it when you are printing.



Feel free to ask your queries in future as this forum has some of the best people in the world available and ready to help.



You have a good day ahead.

But that is not true.
First of all, the printers closes for the cartridges so they don't dry out as fast.
Second, usually you do not have to replace them simply follow the guides to make them flow again.
Third, if nothing land on the paper, it is very unlikely that is is dry ink.

It is rather HP that detect you have not used the printer for a while and make it refuse to print.
I have an HP printer here. Used a few times and put away for 4 years.
Ink is coming out of cartridges, alot, but nothing hits the paper.
I replace with cartridges, not used but installed though, in another malfunctioning hp printer, that decided to never turn on again.
Again ink flows but never hit the paper.
There can be only one explanation. HP does not allow the cartridge to print.

Do not say it is dry ink, when it can not possibly be the reason, when no ink hit the paper !
Especially if you have not adviced to try and make ink flow again, to see if it actually is the problem.
