Computer printer ink that does not dry out?

All ink will dry out if it goes unused for a period of time. Some printers will run a cleaning cycle ever couple of days to help prevent this but it will use up your ink each time it runs a cycle. If you use your printer infrequently then a laser printer would be a better choice. Laser printers use toner that is a dry powder and would not dry out. If you need the color or multifuntions that a laser printer wouldn't have at a reasonable price then I would look to a small hp inkjet printer that takes the 60 or 61 series. These are small ink cartridges that have the printhead embedded on the cartridge itself. This way if your ink dries out you only have to pay a small amount (relative to other ink carts) to get it going again.
