Print Regularly
Printers are prone to drying out if they are not used regularly, so the first tip is to ensure that you print something through your printer at least once a week. Print anything, a timetable for school runs or a shopping list. It may seem like more work for you but it will save you money on cartridges in the long run. The idea is that you keep the ink flowing. Otherwise it is possible that the ink will dry up or even evaporate in some cases – of course this will depend on the conditions the printer is stored in. If you are buying replacement ink it is worth asking your local retailer about how often you should use your printer to prevent this happening. If the ink has not evaporated but dried up, then it will be necessary to run a head cleaning cycle and this will use up more ink and further drain the cartridge.

2. Take the cartridge out and shake it gently before you replace it. There may be a little more ink in the tank.
