Im confused (as always). Some advocate sealing air vent to prevent evaporation of ink in stored cartridges. Others have said one must keep vents unsealed to allow equalization of pressure inside with outside pressure. Which is it? If left unsealed, will the ink truly evaporate. Should the answer be to seal the air vent, then what best to seal with? What brand name tape etc? Now Im talking about the vent on top of cartridge, not to be confused with fill holes on top or side as in the German refill method. Plan to refill a number of cartridges and store 6 months to a year. Yes, of course I would store the cartridges with the ORANGE clip over the output opening. Thanks guys. Long Live Nifty!
