Thanks everybody who answered this question. I'll look for a plain paper
cartridge from Office Max or such and try out the printer sometime.
The original cartridge shipped with the unit is still sealed in its
container. The "Use By:" date is Dec 1986. I don't think I'll waste my
time
opening it since there's a possibility it is no good. I'll just keep it
unopened with the printer and packaging as part of its original shipment
and use new ones.

Anybody have
experience with using normal xerographic copy paper instead of
the HP-specified Thinkjet paper? If so, how are the results?
If it's the printer I'm thinking of, it's the same one that is part of the
"HP IPC" and is basically the same as the Kodak Diconix. You can get
plain-paper ink cartridges, fairly inexpensivelly. The old ones for the
Diconix were only good for about 100 sheets, not sure about the plain-paper
ones. Warning, don't store the ink cartridge in the printer, you're asking
for trouble.
