Inkjet cartridge, full but expired
Found some HP 351 cartridges, still sealed but out of date. Are they usable? Printer died last year.
I started out with nothing, I still have most of it.

If the printers dead, it shouldn't matter what cartridges you put in the machine.

That's very good! 
I meant that they are no use to me anyway, but if somebody else can use them, they can have them!
But are they usable, that is the question!

Re: Inkjet cartridge, full but expired
The cartridges themselves should be fine, but I've heard some printers have firmware which prevents you from using out of date cartridges. No idea how true that second part is, just what I've heard. Sure someone can find a use for them either way.
