I have had my ip1500 since 10/04. Sometimes the ink will dry out if it is not used for some time. Try cleaning the printhead by soaking it in about 1/2" of hot water. Keep changing the hot water until no more ink comes out. Make sure you do not get the contacts wet ( just the base of the head). Dry completely and do a nozzle check and cleaning before doing a major print job. I have used generic ink and have printed more than a case of paper (12 reams) per year in both color and black.
