At least for the ones that are plugged directly into the parallel port on XP machines. There's also a workaround for network shared printers and USB printers, but I need to hunt it down...
Make yourself a CMYK job that takes up a quarter inch or a half inch of material.
Print it to a file (easy to do in Flexi, not sure about other programs). Save that file as "mutoh.prt" or something like that, in your root directory.
Make a batch file that says
copy mutoh.prt lpt1:
exit
save that in the root directory as mutoh.bat.
Go to your control panel, and look for the "scheduled tasks" icon. Set up a task to run daily that consists of running mutoh.bat.
As long as the computer is on, you'll now run a little ink through the heads daily, regardless of what else is going on in your life.
