DA-2A works to a point, but if you let the printer sit for a year it might not unfortunately. Like I said print heads aren't crazy expensive, but still kind of sucks. But hey inkjets still do have their place sometimes.

I have a 210 L drum of the stuff.

We do a fair amount of printing and run the print head cleaning routine on our printer every few weeks to keep it happy. We've had the ET-4550 for over 8 years and it's still chugging along. If it ever needs a replacement print head it will not owe me a damned thing.

That's great but it doesn't sound like this is relevant for home gamers ;)
