"Until recently I was turning my 2400 off after each use but got tired of the cleaning cycles each time I turned it on . . . ." Perhaps the 2400 is different than the 2200 but FWIW I turn the 2200 off except when in use. I was under the impression that leaving it on generated some heat that could cause the inks to dry out. I don't run cleaning cycles every time I turn it back on, I just run a cleaning cycle if I have a clog but I almost never have clogs, maybe a couple times a year if that. However, I'm certainly open to leaving it on if that's a better practice. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tom Husband" <tom.husband@...> To: <DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Monday, January 22, 2007 3:49 PM Subject: Re: [Digital BW] On or Off? Until recently I was turning my 2400 off after each use but got tired of the cleaning cycles each time I turned it on. I read here that leaving it on avoided the cleaning purges so now I leave it on and I believe I'm saving ink. I haven't seen any clogs by leaving it on.
