If you leave your ink jet printer on will it dry out the ink cartridge?
Termin8ter asked:
My Lexmark printer ink keeps running out and the cartridges are pretty new. I leave the printer on all the time, is this why the ink runs out so fast? Any computer nerds know the answer to this?

On or off if you do not use it it will dry out.
It can be full of ink but the part that print is what dry out.
If you do not use it often then you can cover the part that print.
When you buy a cartridge new, you will have to remove the seal, that is where you have too seal up.

It makes no difference.
The reason why your cartridges are running out is probably because you have a lexmark. Lexmark is in the habit of making cartridges which are only good to print 40-100 pages.
I’ll bet your printer has a number 28 and 29 or number 1, 2 or 3, cartridge in there.

Regardless if your printer is On or off if you do not use the ink it will dry out.
