   Laser toner re-dry possible?

   Few posts in a.p.printers these days so thought Id post here in case!   
   HP LaserJet colour.   
   I find particularly the yellow toner begins to loose its intensity after   
   a couple of years of very low print count use. My printer is not kept on   
   standby because it uses 20W continuously on standby, so new cartidges   
   are cheaper!   
   I can see that very slowly the cartridges in the printer will pick up   
   some atmospheric moisture.   
   Just wondering if anyone has tried laser toner rejuvination and if it   
   worked?  It suggests to me that warmth and/or some hi-vac level might be   
   worth a try - but if the dryout doesnt restore the toner colour print   
   intensity then it isnt worth trying! .. C+
