Stop buying ink based printers and buy a cheap laser.

Yes. The logo is at the top. They always put their logo on their fake products.

[-] RogueBanana@lemmy.zip 17 points 6 hours ago

Not so fun fact, printer ink is dirt cheap to produce but they sell it at insane prices cause capitalism. Get laser or one of those refillable ones instead.

[-] Maalus@lemmy.world 6 points 1 hour ago

Get laser, period. Any inkjet printer is a hassle for regular families - who sometimes need to print a shipping label, a document or homework. The ink will dry and will lead to issues with your printer. The powder for lasers is just there - it doesn't clump, it doesn't dry out and it always works, even when you print every second month or even longer. Also the powder lasts forever so you probably never have to change it unless you run a company or something.

It's funny because even the salesmen have said "Oh you have to print occasionally just to make sure it doesn't dry and clog up" and yet our cheap-ass inkjets from well-hated companies have never given any such issues, even when they've been unused for years at a time. Over the span of 2 decades there's been 2 of them. Canon and then later HP.

Would I buy another one? Probably not. Would rather get a Brother laser with wi-fi support these days if there's ever need for a printer again. But I'm hoping that there won't be.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago

And your local public library almost certainly has cheap or even free color printing.

[-] SassyRamen@lemmy.world 2 points 25 minutes ago

I asked mine about free printing and they said "Hau ab du Hurensohn!" Which I think means it cost extra, but idk.

[-] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 5 points 5 hours ago

I recognize that Canon ink cartridge...

Yes, that will print, lol. It will smell weird, and not be very crisp, but it will put something on the paper.

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 6 points 7 hours ago

Does it come with a printer that doesn't break just by looking the wrong way at it? Will it not immediately dry up?

[-] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 28 points 10 hours ago

First, why is the sun wearing sunglasses? Is looking at things that are not a stellar body bright for the sun?

Second, what is happening with the sun's eyes? Is the sun drunk? Did it join a fight club?

[-] friendlymessage@feddit.org 4 points 4 hours ago

It's looking at you and your stellar body

[-] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 5 points 5 hours ago

Never heard of "High Noon"?

[-] thann@lemmy.dbzer0.com 27 points 10 hours ago

Dude, they're literally called "sun glasses", they're made for him!

[-] TragicNotCute@lemmy.world 14 points 10 hours ago
[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Stellar bodies would be more accurately called spheroids. And there is no direction in space. So the best we could say is that he's nondirectional as spheroids.

But he's tripping balls.

[-] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 44 points 12 hours ago

It would literally be cheaper to fill them with human blood.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 39 points 12 hours ago

Please don't give HP ideas.

[-] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 13 points 11 hours ago

How do you think they get red ink already? Those unpaid interns got to be useful somehow

[-] alquicksilver@lemmy.world 8 points 10 hours ago

I'm not sure I want to know how they get yellow.

[-] rockerface@lemm.ee 12 points 10 hours ago

I don't doubt that printer ink costs more than human blood, but I'm not sure if I trust the accuracy of a chart that misspells penicillin.

[-] myrrh@ttrpg.network 2 points 6 minutes ago

...look, they could either drop a redundant L or add another hyphen: i fully support their choice, although in my opinion a better solution would be to reformat 3M PF-5030 and avoid hyphenating either entry...

I do agree - this is a reference from Harry Potter where he literally was forced to use his own blood instead of ink to write

[-] werefreeatlast@lemmy.world 5 points 10 hours ago

The printer ink donation bus is coming!

[-] dumbass@leminal.space 4 points 7 hours ago
[-] Fish@midwest.social 5 points 5 hours ago

No, this won't work. Soy sauce is too thin, so what you need is soy concentrate. If you can't find it online then just Venmo me $20 and I can send you some.

[-] dumbass@leminal.space 4 points 4 hours ago

Ahh you're not gonna get me this time Soy Sauce Salsmen! Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, can't fool me again!

To be real for a second, ecotanks are great.

Fuck cartridges, get a product that doesn't lock you down to using a fucking DRM chip to say your ink is legit.

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 6 points 12 hours ago

Sell this in asian speaking regions, and I bet you make bank.....for about a month.

[-] Fuck_u_spez_@sh.itjust.works 5 points 9 hours ago

What if I don't know anyone who speaks asian?

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

I can speak Asian. Watch:

"The following peoples can be considered amongst those described as Asian: Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Lao, Vietnamese, Korean, Malaysian, Indonesian, Indian, Pakistani, Mongolian, Nepali, Saudi, Iranian, Iraqi, Palestinian..."

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 1 points 8 hours ago

Uhhhhhh........google translate?

[-] myrrh@ttrpg.network 1 points 1 minute ago

"La sekvaj popoloj povas esti konsiderataj inter tiuj priskribitaj kiel aziaj: Ĉina, Japana, Tajlanda, Laosa, Vjetnama, Korea, Malajzia, Indonezia, Hinda, Pakistana, Mongola, Nepala, Sauda, ​​Irana, Iraka, Palestina."

[-] Fuck_u_spez_@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 hours ago

Google says asian is not a language.
