No brand of inkjet printer likes to sit idle for months on end with zero ink going through the head. Today's modern inkjet printers are pretty robust and are probably OK for many weeks, but it is still a good idea to run a tiny bit of ink through the heads periodically. To help our customers, Ryan at JVH has written a utility script in conjunction with your Windows Scheduler to automatically send a print to any printer, at a frequency of your choice. As an added-value service, we are not charging for this program. (Windows PC only) Because there are so many variables in computer operating systems and configurations, this utility is only offered as tool, and we take no responsibility as to how well it will work on your computer, or even it works at all in your environment. If you are interested, please contact Ryan and he will go through the ins and outs of the program.
