This is great info, except he doesn't say how long to leave it in the water. Do you let it dry for a while after dabbing it on the paper, or what.

Worked perfectly!!! I completely refilled my cartridge and it was still printing light gray. Did your trick for 20 seconds and reprinted, now it's dark black!! Thank you!!!

This definitely helped my ink cartridge print out a few more pages! But unfortunately and confusingly, i think i will have to buy a new ink cartidge - even though i just bought mine a few weeks ago...

Thank you so much!!! I just love "how to" videos. This is the first time I have ever cleaned an HP cartridge (or any cartridge). I simply didn't know, but realize I should have read my user guide years ago to learn that I could do this. However, I didn't go through their steps; instead, I found you. Voila! Printer works great again. I dread to think how much money I've wasted buying new ones everytime the printing started to fade. Thank you once again--you made this so easy!
