I had an all in one a decade ago (think epson?).
I couldn’t scan a document because it was low on some color.
Inserts cyan-ide capsule to printer
I so hope that open source printer is successful. It may even be enough to convince me to choose to own a printer.
Chapter 2
So I got a new Cyan capsule and changed it. Now it says low on black.
Huh, now it says “Inserted Ink Cartridge is not original. Self destructing now.”
Came across a printer that had the hp instant ink cartridge installed. It will only print with the subscription. They had it, but it was not enrolled. So do the enrollment, which requires you to print and scan a page for some reason. Guess what, can’t print out the enrollment as it has an instant ink cartridge in.
It’s because it has to print a unique watermark by federal law.
That’s an American thing, isn’t it?
I thought yellow was mainly used for that, and cyan was used to enrich/enhance the deepness of the black or something. I remember something about blues being combined with black ink for that reason at least. Either way, screw inkjets, all my homies use laser.
Yep. Quit screwing around with color inkjet and get a cheap B&W toner machine.
Fuck inkjet. If someone gave me one I’d go Office Space on it and throw the remnants away so it can never harm someone else.
PC LOAD LETTER!?!?
I returned my brother laser printer to Costco in 2019. I will never buy a printer ever again.
Why is that? Usually I read about brother laser printers being the decent non-enshittified ones. I‘ve had one for half a year now and it’s fine so far.
Go back and read that cartoon up there. That’s why. All printers have become enshittified. Brother is no exception.
I have a brother colour laser printer that’s been complaining about being low on magenta for like… a year now. Still prints black and white just fine.
Did you buy an inkjet and expect it to be amazing and last for ever because it was a Brother printer?
Yeah I don’t think a B&W printer will complain about being out of a colour
Enshittification.
Nah they were shit from day 1
It still got worse somehow. Old printers at least could have been fixed a lot better, the ink cartridges could be filled a few times, and they didn’t just hold 2ml of ink.
PC Load Letter?
lp0 on fire
Never gets old, sadly
“Use black ink only”
I love this.
