No, many of us are doing the same thing.  MIS FS inks and Piezo driver
should give you what you are after.

Most users seem to be able to leave the printer off for a week with no bad
effects.  High elevation and low humidity apparently can cause problems if
the printer is not used regularly.  However, for most, working once a week
would not be a problem.

Good luck.
