Is this HP L7680 all-in-one done for?

It must be at least 10 years old now so I got my monies worth out of it but is there anything I can try to fix it?

The ink cartridges have plenty of ink and the print heads were replaced whenever I got the warning to replace them. I did the cleaning and aligning of the print heads too.

I'm guessing the black/yellow printhead is dirty or bad, you could replace that printhead, there's a tool for cleaning 88/940 printheads. If you do want to get a new printer, don't buy anything HP that's new, they've gotten much worse in terms of reliability.

I have a B&W printer but need a color printer as well. Don't care how fast it is.
