Clean Printer Cartridges with WD-40

We have these huge efficient printers located throughout the building for everyone to use. They print inexpensively even in gorgeous color. The first time I printed to the one near my office I had accidentally left it set to color and felt ashamed that I had wasted such beauty on horendous web advertisements.

In spite of all these printers located in each of the office areas we still have several dozen expensive, slow, noisy, and lousy printers on everyones personal desk as well. Why bother walking 10 feet when you can get less for more.

My problem with printers is that they soon get to the point that the more-expensive-than-gold ink gets clogged in one of the color channels and I have a dead $40 cartridge that has provided me with $2 worth of value over its pitiful life.

A West Virginia Blogger has posted about cleaning your print cartridge with WD-40. Found via Lifehacker where there are many more cleaning suggestions in the comments.
