If this is not the correct Group to post this enquiry, I'm sorry and
would appreciate guidance as to which one it should be.

I have followed the messages in this Group for two years or so and I
have just been given a used Epson Stylus Colour 640 with half full
cartridges. However, I will be using this very infrequently for colour
as I already use a monochrome OKI for regular document printing.

In view of the possibility of jets blocking, what do I need to do to
ensure that this Epson stays serviceable for as long as possible.

Suggestions would be very welcome.

Look for the most recent Arthur Entlich post, email him, and ask him to send
you his Epson head cleaning manual. Excellent on maintenance of Epson
printers.

There is a high probability with Epson printers when used infrequently.
The chances are greater with aftermarket ink.

<------------------------------------------------------>

Based on my daily use of after market ink carts in my Epson, HP & Canon
printers I find that they perform just as well as any oem ink carts I
have ever used.
This is my personal use experience covering approxiametly 10 yrs of
continual use.
What is your personal use experience with after market ink/carts?
Please answer.

Thanks for your help and suggestions which I have adopted.

Thanks also to the others replying to my request in this Group.
