Can anyone comment on the printed self life of this product? Thanks.

I don't understand your question. The date on my jars is about 2 years in the future. As well sealed as these jars are, they probably will be good to use beyond that time.

If the jar is unopened and kept in dark and not frying hot conditions (aka a cupboard or pantry and not over the stove) I have had good product about a year past the date. I had three jars of chicken flavor hide in my pantry and when I found them I tried them. A jar tends to last me 2-4 weeks, and all three ate just fine. If you found it opened, dust caked lid and past date I wouldn't trust it...

I don't know about the shelf life. What I can state is that would be better as a glue than anything else.

Mine lasted 6 months(it depends how much you print). Keep printing even when the display tells you you need to replace the cartridge. You will know when to replace by the page appearance.

Just printed a picture on fabric and am very pleased with it. Have not printed on photo paper but since that should be even better, I would say, quite good.

Ours is used as a network printer, only occasionally. It goes into a "deep sleep" after a while and it is pretty close to powered off. It wakes up when you print something. Ours is sometimes days or weeks between use at this point and it does fine on waking up. It does take something like 30 secs for the first print after it goes into deep sleep mode.

First of all you are very lucky it is still working. There are faults on the PCB capacitors which make the printer constantly recycle. If you are using the photo paper pack with the cartridges then I was informed by a reliable source that there is just enough ink to print the paper pack included. Could this be the reason?

I wonder the same thing too, I bought the printer for the same reason and am having the same problem, I just bought a tri pack Feb 21 and with almost no color printing it claims to be empty 4 months later. I've heard the printer priming itself from time to time especially when the computer wakes up from sleeping. I gues from now on i'll keep it off until im ready to print

thanks for the info, This looked like a great printer, and with the $100 rebate, I already went ahead and ordered it.

It's good to me so far. I often do double sided printing but there was no problem, and it's not that thin I think.

The aplicaron incluyes let you crearte your own desing. I use a $20 design progrsm, save it snd then open it on the lightscribe applicstion.BUTthe more complicsted the design the longer will get to print. I did one that took half an hour to print. Yet is much better than a label. Exito

Can't help on that, because I have a hard time making it work period. I have Windows XP, and it worked well for awhile, then started smearing, fading, skipping and otherwise giving me trouble. It still looks beautiful as a piece of furniture, though; I'm too "thrifty" to pitch it. Tried to have it scan a page an hour ago and it refused. I don't print very often, so the ink cartridges refuse to obey the printer, being dried up. With all the time I spend trying to get it to work, I could write documents in long hand quicker. Best of luck to you, Tom! George Strella, Tulsa

I do quite a bit of large print printing; I would say that they lasted me close to a year. I use my printer for only personal, not professional printing.

I buy the extra large black cartridge along with the regular size color pack. It seems to last US about a month. My daughter & I are the only users. We probably make at least one copy per day, but we are not heavy users. Today, 3 copies were made, but it is not used daily. I don't feel like it is a heavy ink user, but I have nothing to compare it to. It does a great job though. Printing looks professional and we are happy with it.

It, really; depends on how much and how often you print. Mine last quite a long time , but I don't print that often.
