All printers are to an extend prone to ink drying ... (not thermo-sub printers) ...
whether this starts to show after a week or after a day is likely depending on
the environment in which the printer operates (hot/cold ... dry/humid ... etc) ...
A good idea is normally not to switch the printer off entirely, instead, let it
sit in standby if not needed ... this way, the printer can go into a cleaning cylce
if it feels like it.
A thing I found helpful is to cover the printer with thin plastic foil or something similar ...
this helps against dust.
