The life (in years) of a Ink

What is the life(In years) of printer ink which is closed in the original packaging , for example the 932XL for printer "HP OfficeJet 6700 printer premium"
This question was solved.
View Solution.

The 932 cartrdiges typically have a two year warranty.  Some HP printers enforce "expiration" of supplies to prevent damage to the printer if old thickened ink is used, but the Officejet 6700 does not do this.
Cartridges do have a shelf life, but I have used cartridges a decade old in my Designjet 650c. The cartridges can lose water vapor over time even through the packaging.  This is especially an issue if the environment is particurlarily hot and dry.  If I was going to store cartridges for years I would put then in a zip-lock sandwich bag in the package and put them in the fridge (not the freezer).  Take them out a day before you would need them and let them get back to room temperature before installing them in the printer.

    I assume that you don't have the installation discs, so:
    1. Reboot
    2. Hold command + s key down after you hear the chime.
    3. When you get a text prompt enter in these terminal commands to create a brand new admin account (hitting return after each line):
    (Type these commands very carefully)
    mount -uw /
    rm /var/db/.AppleSetupDone
    shutdown -h now
    4. You will go through the setup process again, create a new admin account, login to it and then change your existing account password or whatever else you need to do. You can delete the account you made in this process, or not.

    That is shorter than normal. Any signs of wear? And you're sure it's the cable, not one of the pins in the iPhone's charging port?

  • All my family photos for the last 6 years are disappeared...

    Hi,
    Can anybody help me?
    I am in complete chock fearing that all my family photos from the last 7 years are lost!
    I have had ALL my family photos in the Adobe Stater Edition. Lately, I have been requested to register to get an unlock code every time I wanted to see photos or download new photos. I have tried to register but has been informed that the Adobe Starter Edition does not exist anymore. Yesterday, I therefore loaded all my photos into Picasa. I worked with the photos for about one hour - and then they suddently all disappeared. I seached for the photoes everywhere but they are completely gone... they are not on the hard disk at all. How is that possible? The photos were located on the hard disc in the "Picture folder" in a subfolder named "Adope". This subfolder was created automatically, years ago, when I started to load photo into the Adope Starter Edition. This subfolder is now empty - how is that possible? If I now start up the Adobe Starter Edition I get the usual "unlock message" - but behind the message I can see some of my photos but maybe this is just a "dead" bacground from my last attempt to get the unlock code?
    What should I do - can anybody please help me? I am willing to upgrade to whatever type of Adobe product it requires to get the last 7 years of my family life back.
    And yes... I did a full back-up of my photos app. 12 months ago... I looked for it yesterday in complete panic... it is gone... we had a burglary last summer... and yesterday I realized that it has been stolen.
    ALL - ALL!! the photos of my two wonderful girls growing up... sitting in the Danish summer fields with floral wreaths on their head... I cannot believe it... I fell I have lost their childhood.
    Please help me...
    Kirsten

    In Picasa, look under to Tools menu, under Options, and at the bottom, it shows 'Save Imported Pictures in...'; look at where it is saving files, then look for a folder called Picasa at that location; could be that it moved all your files to there.

    I'd wait. What can't you do that you need? You mean you want to buy a new model, then why not wait for an actual new one, not the two year old 5,1, when you need to and have outgrown.
    Yours will run Mountain Lion. yours is 4 yrs old and still supported and has life left.

  • Asset write off in the current fiscal year.

    Hi Experts,
    I want to write off an asset in next 4 periods of the current fiscal year 2007. For example:
    Asset 11000
    APC value: 10000
    APC Date: 01.01.2005
    The useful life will end in fiscal year 2008.
    The book value left at the begining of the current fiscal year 2007 Rs. 4000.00
    In the current fiscal year this asset has already been depreciated for previuos 3 periods.
    Now Business wants to write off ( fully depreciated ) this asset in next 4 periods equally and then if the book value and tax value is nil, they want to scap the asset.
    Now can you please tell me how to make this happened. Its very urgent. If you need any more information, most welcome.
    Rgds,
    BABA

    Hi,
        You would have to set the asset to manual depreciation(Depr.Key MANU)
    and generate a posting via ABMA for each of the periods.
    Kind regards

    Depreciation in 2012 for assets are as expected with 11 periods. Half month's depreciation posted in the month of acquisition, and the following months are calculated accurately up to period 11.
    In FY 2013, June and July are in Period 1.
    For FI Posting, this is true and correct.
    For Depreciation Posting, only one year's depreciation is calculated but we need 1 year + 1 period (because the previous year was shortened by one period).
    Is there a setting to increase the depreciation or extend the depreciation for 1 period in 2013 that was reducde in 2012?       
    The shortened Fiscal Year changes are not in productiveness. The assets created are new assets such as in a normal operation when shortened Fiscal Year has been in place. As such, new assets have no expired useful life yet and it is newly capitalized.
    No user exits or custom development is in place.
    I have checked all the following notes, either they made no changes or were not relevant:
    58443
    183546
    397925
    1572545
    210214

    123026
    799719
    672255
    428292
    160093
    The depreciation calculation is lacking/missing one period of depreciation eventhough depreciation is not reduced.
    Please suggest any possible solution to this issue that we are facing. Thanks!

    Please check SPRO transaction AFAMA for the Depreciation Keys:
    Setting:
    Depr to the day
    No reduct in short year
    Period control according to fiscal years
    Check which is appropriate starting with the above order as I think this will fit your logic. But this depends on whether postings have already been made in the periods you want adjusted. If so then you need to use AFAR and choose repeat run after you have changed your config settings for the periods already posted. Additionally you may have problems if you have rolled forward your Fiscal Year in Assets and you will/may need to roll it back if possible before running AFAR etc.
    SAP normally calculates depreciation for straight line by taking the number of periods in a year and dividing total depreciation for that year by the periods and posting that figure for the month. If you set Depr to day then it will take into account different months day length etc.
    No reduc in short year would also solve your problem but would reflect the full year depreciation in the shortened year (12 periods not 11).
    Hope this helps if its not to late.

  • What is the life expectancy of airport express?, What is the life expectancy of airport express?

    What is the life expectancy of an airport express?

    My guess.....3-4 years would be about average based on forum experience.
    I have one that is 6 years old...been running almost 24/7, and have had one fail that was less than 6 weeks old, so averages won't tell you much since any electronic component can fail at any time.
    Is something wrong with your Express?

  • What is the life expectancy of M

    My 3 year old MuVo N200 has been experiencing difficulties over the last month or so. Currently, the display screen displays only the Creative logo. I know that there is music loaded on there, but that does not play either. I have already tried replacing batteries. I believe that I have all of the most recent downloads. Could the problems be related to the end of the life of this product?

    There is a chance that the hardware has become defecti've, however it is more likely that the firmware in the player has become corrupted. Try reloading the firmware. This might solve the problem. Back up all the files on the player to your pc before reloading the firmware, as reloading the firmware will delete what is in the player's memory. The n200 is listed on Creative's download page as the Muvo Micro.Message Edited by JK23 on 02--200807:36 PM

  • What is the life expectancy of the hp laser jet p3015 printer?

    What is the life expectancy of the hp laser jet p3015 printer?

    What is the life expectancy of the older base stations (flying saucer/spaceship looking one) and what are the telltale connection signs that it's starting to go?
    Apple has never published any life expectancy specifications for any of their routers (or desktops/laptops) that I am aware of. As a rule of thumb, I would consider two years for any consumer electronics that operates 24 x 7 to be a reasonable period. Obviously some experience more or less and it would depend on a number of factors: ambient temperature, electrical circuit stability, area prone to lightening strikes, etc.
    Some telltale signs that an AirPort has (or is about to fail):
    Status lights are not illuminated or do not match any of the known configurations.
    Unit feels cool to the touch after power is applied even after a lengthly (15-30 minutes) period of time.
    Unit refuses to intialize, even after performing multiple "factory default" resets.
    Weak or no wireless signal.
    Ethernet port(s) not functioning
    Etc.
    Also, are there any compatiility issues with newer models and G5/G4s?
    Three potential issues:
    Depending on the version of OS X you are running on these clients, they may not be able to support the latest AirPort Utility required to administer the latest AirPorts. OS X 10.5.7 is the minimum required.
    Support for 802.11n connectivity. Most G5 or G4 Apples support 802.11g, some only 802.11b.
    Support for WPA2. Not supported if the G5 or G4 is equipped with the Original AirPort Card.

  • Ipod disabled and i can't for the life of me restore it HELP PLEASE!

    Okay so last year I bought an ipod touch 2nd gen off a friend I lost it 3 months later the other day my mom managed to find it in the stuff I left behind. It's passcoded to prevent my brother hacking into it, and wouldn't you know it I can't hack it for the life of me and i no longer have the computer it was synced to. I've looked threw the forum and people keep linking to a restore page but i can't seem to restore it. Could someone walk me through it step by step? It would be great to have an ipod again.
    I'm not getting error messages just the apple pops up and itunes tells me it can not access my ipod with the password on it.

    ConPlace the iPOd in Recovery mode and connect to your computer and restore via iTunes.

  • Any way to measure the life expectancy of a PRAM battery?

    Is there any way to measure the life expectancy of the PRAM battery through software?   Or must one open the case to determine the left over charge?  I have an iMac 5,1 that thus far is doing well.  But I am well aware the age suggests the PRAM battery may go soon, and I will have a two week period soon where I won't be accessing it, having to leave it off.

    I'd love to know if there is something out there to do this. Just spent a few minutes searching and was only able to find something years out of date for the old 1/2 AA G3 PRAM battery, that only works in OS 9.
    The best I've seen is to disable automatic time updating, shut down and unplug for several hours, and see if the clock is still on time when you reconnect to power. This seems very imprecise, to say the least, and you will be draining more power from the battery while it's off wall power.
    Of course, you can always take it out and measure it with a volt meter, but it would be insane to go through all that just to measure it and put the same one back.
    I think the life expectancy of one of the CR2032s, the lithium button battery which I'm supposing your early Intel, circa 2006, uses is around five years.
    If this is your model, replacement doesn't look all that painful. My late 2009 21.5 is a total nightmare with 35 steps. Keeps on going even after the logic board is out. Why Apple puts what should be a user replaceable item in such an inaccessible place -- and getting more inaccessible with each new model -- I have no idea. I guess you're just supposed to throw out the computer when the battery dies.

    if i stream for 8 hours at work and keep my screen on the entire time will it shorten the life of the screen

    The screen itself would not wear out, however the LED backlights that make the screen glow do have a limited life span and over time they will become dimmer and shift color somewhat. This however would take years to accomplish. You'll be replacing your phone before you have anything to worry about.
