Digital BW, The Print

Jim,

Just turn it off at the printer when you aren't using it. If it is like all
the earlier Epson's this will "park" the head and it will be less likely to
give you problems.

The killer with the Epson's is to turn them on and off using the switch on
your surge protector or power strip. If they don't shut down properly, they
will do a full clean on startup and they will lose track of the ink count.

Recent Epson cartridges have a self sealing valve. You can take them out and
store them in a zip lock back for use latter. I have been doing this with my
1280's without a problem.
