I am placing my printers: Epson C82, Canon S9000 and S900,in a non- climate controlled storage unit

QUESTION:

My house has sold and I am going to take off for a couple of months,quit my job, I'm hitting the road. I am placing my printers: Epson C82, Canon S9000 and S900,in a non- climate controlled storage unit. I googled this subject and there seems to be conflicting advice. Some say they ink will dry out and clog the printheads,others say it won't. I figured that I'd get an answer here on this forum. If anybody has experience with this please respond.

ANSWER:

How non-climate controlled will it be? Below freezing? Above 35C? I would probably wrap it in a garbage bag, thrown in a small damp sponge and seal it up, then wrap in blankets or similar to moderate temperature cycles. You may have some issues after a few months of storage, look up Arthur Entlich and email him a request for his unclogging guide. Print this and store it with the printer so you will have it when you need it later.
