Hello, Jean.

 JH> Anyone here have any experience with bringing dried-up HP ink
 JH> cartridges back to life?

 JP> Easy. Get a saucer, fill it with a little water and add a teaspoon of
 JP> clorine bleach. Stand the tank over night in it. It will dissolve the
 JP> dried up ink and work as new. I have done this before, often.

Thanks, Jean.  I would have tried this one as a last resort. Overnight
soak in plain distilled water finally worked for me on this one.

Your reply wins 'honorable mention', in the opinion of the judges.
