Hi all,
I have Deskjet F380 that wasn't used for a while. I am using it with Windows 10 (newest software donwloaded from HP site few days ago -> installed). I tried to run a test page, but no ink appeared on the paper (standard print paper 80g). I am thinking if it is possible for the ink in the catriges to dry as I didnt use the printer for a while, and should I only change the catriges or do some additional clean up? According to the printer settings there is enough ink in each catrige.

if the printer hasn't been used for a while you have dried ink. You can soak bottom part of the ink cartridge ( copper printhead part) in hot water hoping that hot water will dissolve dried ink if that doesn't help it's time for new cartridges.
