Sharpee trees. These trees are grown in the Southern Region of Philidelphia and are harvested during the NFL season by Terrell Owens fans. \n\nNext week we will discover where rubber bands come from, sponsored by Durex.

It's a mixture of the ink and cloth paper that they use.  Smells sweet doesn't it???

Maybe the ink has caused the problem or its meant to happen. You should have read the manual carefully regarding refilling the cartridge or it was not designed to be refilled. Your friends may not have problems because they different models. Different models have different settings and requirements almost. Or maybe the cartrtidge is damaged. Clean the part where you can see a electronic device exposed. That's where the printer can detect if a cartridge is full or not, or nothing is present.

It is not the dye or pigment; it is the solvent used.  As the solvent evaporates the ink dries.  The dried ink has no smell.

its just grease, used to be ash from corks, more recently people use strips probably like tape.  There's also temporary tatoo type eye-black which is an ink.

I have heard that the office supply store, Staples, produces high quality ink that is comparable to the printer's manufacturers ink. \n\nI found an article that points out Staples will be providing ink for Dell printers. Plus they offer some sort of in-store recycling program. Sorry couldn't find any comparisons online.

It uses different proportions of the three colours to get black, but true black can only be achieved by a black ink cartridge.\n\nIt may be your printer will take the black cartridge too.

A smaller ink cartidge, basically just a starter.  How long it will last will vary by how you use it (type of printing, quality level, etc...) but it will not last very long.

DNA comparison by electrophoresis. I've seen kits available in school divisions for science classes. On a similar note: paper chromatography to check if the composition of ink between samples are same or different.

Officemax will do it, but only with authentic HP, Brother, or Lexmark  inks.  They usually have the paper up front, but check Staples first.  They usually give MONEY AWAY, which I'd take over Officemax Branded Recycled Leaves, err, I mean paper anyday!! :)

just like other countries create money. They get a special paper, sandwich special thngs between layers, ink print the markings, serialize everything and then cut them in appropriate sizes.

ok shirley, following the instructions the others have suggested get me to where i need to go, but they do not reveal any ink levels, which is what i expected.\n\nnot all printers allow you to check the ink levels on your system.  mine is a laser and there is a menu on the printer which allows me to find the usage.  however, my daughters doesn't have either.\n\nsometimes you need to watch it yourself.  if you feel that the ink carts you have in the machine have been printing for like forever, feel free to get a new one as a back up.  keep it in a cool dry place, as a warm dry place will dry out the cartridge if kept there too long.\n\nwatch the pages as they print.  when you notice that the ink is getting lighter or you begin to see streaks in the printing it is time to replace the cartridge.  if you are able and wanting to refill them, DO NOT RUN the cartridge empty, as it will ruin the cart and you will not be able to refill it.  once you remove it from the printer, you may dispose of it, place it in a plastic zip close bag with a slightly damp paper towel until it can be refilled, or use it at your local officemax/staples to get a free ream of paper, or maybe your local video store will give you a free movie rental if you turn it in.\n\nagai, not all printers allow you this opportunity.\n\nhope this helps\ngood luck
