You could try putting scotch tape over both the ink opening and over the
vent hole on the top of the cartridge.
However, I doubt that these cartridges will be any good after 2 years of
storage. I would recommend your daughter sets aside a few dollars a month
until she's ready to pick up the printer, then she can just by new
cartridges.
