Q: 1. I bought an Epson SureColor P800 printer in 2019 & never set it up. Am setting it up now. The ink cartridges are still in their vacuum packages, never opened. The expiration date was Dec 2021. So they're 5 months past. Do I risk clogging the heads if I use these expired cartridges? Should I toss them and buy a new full round of fresh cartridges?
