    Below is some interesting information about ink cartridges in general
    (their longevity)
    Inks are water solutions and cartridges are made of what seems to be
    polyethylene. Over a period of years, water molecules will migrate through
    the walls of the cartridge--it has nothing to do with whether the cartridge
    is sealed properly or not--it will happen anyway. This situation is
    roughly analogous to a balloon filled with air. After several days, air
    leaks through the rubber, no matter how well it is sealed. The bottom line
    is that cartridges have a shelf-life on the order of years. They should be
    fine for about 3 years or so at room temperature. They can last much
    longer at lower temperatures, but don't allow them to freeze--the water
    will expand and possibly break the cartridge.
    In theory, a way to make cartridges last *almost* indefinitely, would be to
    store them in a jar filled with water. This would *essentially* keep the
    water inside the cartridge in equilibrium with the water outside--i.e.
    about as much water would leak in as would leak out. The reason that I
    said *almost* is that there is a very weak force of osmosis at work. This
    is because there is a difference in the concentration of molecules
    dissolved inside the cartridge (i.e. the ink and small amounts of other
    additives) and outside, where there is nothing dissolved). This force will
    very slowly pull water into the cartridge as the exact concentrations
    attempt to reach equilibrium (this is the principal of dialysis). However, we
    are now talking about a process that would take perhaps decades. Also in
    theory, if the water in the bottle had the exact concentration of large
    molecules as inside the cartridge, the cartridge would last more than a
    lifetime. Chemistry in (very slow) action.
