Hopefully others reading this and wondering will do some research on their own and thus become better informed. However given one of the additional reasons for turning it off i conclude that makes very good sense to periodically turn it on if it is not used for a long time. I did not in the limited number of references i just read read anything about your suggestion that it would be advisable to periodically turn the printer on. The expressed opinions in all the cases i read indicate turning it off when not being used is the best way to ensure long and proper use of the printer. Suffice to say that it demonstrates for MORE than just the one reason i just stated there are others as well. To ensure that i was presenting as much of the reasons for turning it off as i could i just did a bit of research on the subject.

This does have a significant effect on the printer's proper functioning and life. It came to me that a prime reason was where the print head gets 'parked' when it is in the off position as opposed to where it is when on but not used. Soybean, Your comments re whether it is an advantage (or not ) to turn off the inkjet printer when not being used (of course i meant like for an hour or more as opposed to minute by minute) brought back more of the recollections of the information i had read. The key here would be for the user to be sure not to forget to do this. Now, if you were to propose leaving the printer off when not in use but remember to start it at least one a week and at least print some small document to keep it's juices flowing, then I'd probably agree with that approach. There may be times when I don't do any printing for several weeks and leaving the printer off all that time could cause problems with dried inkjet nozzles. I'm pretty sure I'm better off leaving the printer on so that it runs these self-cleaning cycles than to leave it off. My Brother MFC-790CW (about 2 1/2 yrs old, as I recall) has an automatic cleaning cycle, which runs about once a week if I'm not using the printer much. In that situation, the inkjet nozzles are more likely to get dry due to non-use. I'll state the opposing notion which is that inkjet printers do not fare well when left off and not used for lengthy periods. Truenorth, I have not diligently searched for articles on this subject but I'm skeptical of the notion that the printer should always be turned off when NOT in use. Taking the local copy center for color when needed (which is rare!)!! Have someone else figure out what a horrible product Canon makes.Ĭanon thinks they will continue to take my hard earned $$'s? Think again! Goodbye Canon forever!!īuying a Monochrome printer. This is it! This ip1800 is going going to be sold in a garage sale or trashed. Take out the color cartridge and it is empty. I have an original in the cabinet, replace it and print 2 documents, then the error message to replace the empty color cartridge to continue printing error messages pops up. Today I needed important document to be printed in (B/W), then realize my black ink cartridge is empty. I have even tried printing in grayscale to make sure it doesn't use this cartridge at all. It's all a inside job to use the color slightly and to a point that is not noticeable. It is obvious that the color depletes itself even if you don't print in color on this ip1800 Canon printer. I am fed up with having to buy a color cartridge that runs $26.00 for the original even though I don't use the darn thing.
