102 21
Are we all aware of the fact that printer cartridges also have expiry dates? Just as food includes an expiration date, the same goes for expired printer cartridges. We can fall real sick if we take expired food items, liquids, and medicines. Similarly most of the inkjet cartridges include an expiry date but there is no logic behind this thought. Its just a predication that they just put an expiry date on them despite you can still find them in good condition.

If you wish you can test the expired printer cartridge in your printer. No harm, as they will either work or not work.

Comparing a New Cartridge with Expired Printer Cartridges

A new printer ink cartridge, if we don't use the printer enough and the expiration date is still good, the ink jets will clog or dry up even we have ink in the cartridge and it wont come out. A new cartridge is sealed and protected from evaporation and contamination but it cannot be protected from things like gravity and chemical changes. Over a period of time the ink thickens, harder naturally, even without the exposure to the air. Therefore its not only the Expired Printer Cartridges but even the new printer cartridges might not work properly.

How to ensure the Quality of Printing

Best way is that we should use the printer cartridge until the printing quality starts deteriorating. We can reuse the expired printer cartridges again once the ink is finished by refilling the same cartridges. It will save our money and natural resources. Its a Good Practice to reuse or recycle.

However once you refill the printer cartridge it will only work till the cartridge chip is reset. One should always be careful while changing the printer cartridge.

Below we have mentioned following steps for replacing the cartridges:-

1)Turn on your printer.

2)Open the Cartridge door.

3)Squeeze the bottom of each latch and lift the latch.

4)Remove the old cartridge and insert the new cartridge.

5)Press down on the latch and close.

How to Prevent loss arise due to Expired Printer Cartridges

Many manufacturers suffer huge losses due to the expiry of printer cartridges, which have become expired on the shelves of the retailers or at the franchise stores, due to low demand or high supply of the cartridges.

We need to create awareness, so that people becomes more confident and comfortable using the expired ones. This wont even help the end user who will be benefited by getting the cartridges at discounted rates but even the companies who can cover at least their cost of goods.
