To take this a bit further off-topic, has anyone rejuvenated inkjet cartridges ?
I have an HP Inkjet 500 that I bought a Ko.Rec.Type refill kit for. I refilled the
cartridge some time ago and it has worked fine untill recently when after a
period of inactivity it stopped printing even tho the cartridge is still 1/2 full. I
can only imagine that a solid has plugged the output. Would it be possible to
empty the cartidge and flush it out with some sort of solvent ?
Have you tried cleaning the bottom of the cartridge? I read somewhere
that you don't let
the cartridge go 100% dry but fill up while there is still ink in the
head.
I tend to fill up a cartridge once and throw it way after the second
use.

Ps. At the risk of putting this back on topic, I used some rubber renew
on the rollers
so they would grab better ( and filed up the cartridge ) today for a
bunch of schematic
printing.
