I found a site that went out of business and they had boxes full of ink they were throwing away. So, ink
not costing me anything. I could wholesale you some ink if you need a case :lol:

You're right on costing you. Not only the ink, but every key stroke could be a key stroke earning you cash :D

There you go, now you're thinking.

You may want to use some thinner with that base white and you could use some food coloring to make
your own shades of color for that printer, specially if you print off restaurant discounts and / or grocery
coupon offers.

My computer seems to be a bit more modern, because it uses no ink.

Or do you mean that you print everything in the forum on your inkjet printer and have it as bedtime reading.

Years years years ago, I walked into a walmart and purchased something called
a telephone answer fax machine. At the time, it was expensive at about $200.
I bought it and used it for years years years. I liked it. What really amazed me
was that it didn't use ink. Or perhaps I should say, there was no such thing as
replacing ink with it.

So, no one can tell me today that the printer/ink industry isn't one of the largest
rip offs in all techno history! I truly believe that.

If they could make an ink less fax machine then of course they could make ink less
printers.

Printer is no money today , Ink is money ..... Do you know how much is one liter of ink , it is gold. Here you buy new printer for 30-40 dollars but pay over 1000 a year for ink .... good solution is to buy new printer and once ink is gone buy new printer.....mad , mad world

No no Tasman. You be thinking wrong.

The solution is to get in the INK business and make a deal direct to the INK makers.

Then you can set up online and sell ink and have it dropped ship too.
