    We also need some sort of way to prevent heads from drying out so quickly.

    Printer companies know heads dry out, and they ship tanks with caps / tape for prevent dry out on retail store shelves. But once the tanks are installed, printers just leave the heads exposed to the air. Like a pen without a cap, the tanks dry out.

    I print like 5 times a year. So 90% of the time, when I’m replacing a tank, it’s because the damn head dried out.
