Not sure what "her battle" means???
I have 3 "good" printers, except that they don't work any more because the ink has dried out and blocked the nozzles.
It seems you have to keep switching them on regularly even if you don't want to use them, as this squirts some ink through the nozzles to clean them. I used to do this, then found that when I wanted to print, the cartridge was empty because of all this wasted ink.
I can't find anyone to repair them, but you can buy some kits on Ebay with a syringe and cleaning solution to force through the nozzles, but no guarantee that it will work if they are too dried out.
