RE: [DIYbio] Autoclaving 2d printer cartridges?

The cartridges are probably made of ABS plastic which isn't autoclavable. The best plastic for the autoclave is polypropylene. Also the microfluidic circuits might get damaged by the temp alone. Not sure if it will handle it. Why not a bath in light bleach or print with it using a head cleaning cycle. Maybe hydrogen peroxide?
