I have an Epson 'Ecotank' and the issue with 'printing every month or
two'now isn't that the tanks dry out, it's that you have to do a pretty
rigorous head cleaning to get it to print correctly after disuse, and that
head cleaning uses a lot of ink. The solution that I have come up with is to
print a colorful 'test page' every few weeks to keep things running smoothly.
