Poor life span

We have 4 HP printers that take these (expensive) print heads. We've replaced three in the last year and when the fourth one died today, after having just been replaced 3 months ago, I had had it. I called HP and I hadn't realized before that there is a warranty date printed on the print heads. Obviously every one I've paid to replace was still under warranty but I hadn't known and had thrown them away. In any case, they are sending me replacement ones for free. She said the reason for short life span is you MUST leave your printer powered up at all times. It will go into sleep mode but service the heads when needed to prevent clogging and to keep them working. She said that will drastically extend the print head life. Otherwise, she stated that the ink dries and clogs up and ruins the heads if the printer is turned off every night. We will leave all of ours on from now on, since the energy costs I was told would be very negligible. Hope that helps others!
Comments about HP 88 Magenta and Cyan Printhead (C9382A):
The quality of HP products and ITS WARRANTIES has declined over the years. HP warranty website for inkjet cartidges and printheads is impossible to use (by design) confirming the decline of HP. For 30 years 95% of my business and home printers have been HP but that is going to change since HP fails to support it products and customers
Comments about HP 88 Magenta and Cyan Printhead (C9382A):
This is my second magenta/cyan print head replacement purchase, the first replacement print head did not last half as long as the original installed in the printer. In the interest of full disclosure, I did accidentally touch the contacts on the first replacement print head prior to installation, the package warns not to. It didn't seem to affect initial performance, perhaps it affects longevity.
Comments about HP 88 Magenta and Cyan Printhead (C9382A):
My HP Office Jet Pro 5100 has been in use for some time now and I have replaced all the printheads a couple of times. For some time now the software in the machine will not recognize the new printheads. The first time I called customer service and all they could suggest was buying a new printer. I have found that i can install the non working old printheads and let the machine run through the setup and without turning it off, swap in the new printhead. The process must be repeated if the printer is ever turned off. They sould make printheads that will work with the printer.
HP does not provide an estimated page yield for their print heads.

Q:
i have a printhead that is no longer working and it is still under warranty. HP says to return it for a replacement to a retailer. Should I bring it to a store or mail it to staples.
