Is there anyway I can get my printer to automatically (daily) print a sheet in order that the ink does not dry.

Lol, the ink doesnt dry out from day to day. You will be wasting ink by doing so. However, I think your supposed to realign the cartridges if its not printing straight.

You could throw a print job into Task Scheduler.

Aside: The moving parts do get wonky if left alone. I have a Samsung laser I love to death, but I left it be for a year or so without a single job, and it became a lot harder to get to feed. After running about 50 sheets through, it became more tolerant but less than perfect.

Yeah, it's not going to die after a day or so. I've left mine for weeks at a time and it's still been absolutely fine. If you havent used it for a few months then I'd recommend running a test page before you print, but with modern printers the ink doesn't dry out quickly like it used to.
