Printer ink expiration dates
Just like every item out on the
market, printer ink products have expirations dates. Are
you aware of the expiration date on your ink jet cartridge?
Why would you become concerned with an
expiration date? If your like every computer owner, there is
nothing worse than running out of printer ink
right in the middle of a major product on a weekend, holiday or late at
night. However, that means stocking up on a particular cartridge
that fits your printer. This could mean that these ink cartridges
might end up sitting on a shelf in your home or office for an extended
amount of time.
Our "advice" is to look at the expiration
date on the box when you buy these ink jet cartridges. Ask your
self a few questions like how long could this cartridge could actually
be stored, is there 100% customer satisfaction from the company you buy
this cartridge from, and can you return the printer ink product if it
doesn't work regardless of the expiration date? These are all
legitimate questions. Just remember not to buy it unless you
expect to use it before the printed date. We truly believe that
the expiration date on an ink jet cartridge means that the cartridge
will NOT work after that particular date.
Don't mess with the expiration date
on any ink cartridge. It's not worth taking a chance that
your printer ink products could fail you when you need them most.
If your cartridge doesn't work you could
try putting the ink jet cartridge in hot water to loosen up the ink
inside. However this rarely works so don't count on this method to
safe your printer ink products. We've found that the reservoir
turns bad and won't flush the water in or the ink out. Sorry!
