I would like a white printing printer
« on: 01 December 2009, 20:42:00 »

Pity they don't make them any more

I wanted to make some transfers and white ink is so useful for them

People often used to ask for a "black & white" printer or cartridges when I had the IT business. 

Its a bit difficult to see white ink on normal A4 though  :-? :-? :) ;)

I guess it would be a blend of inks from your cartridge. I'll keep an eye out for any more photos that I print which contain white images.

Ive got one lying about somewhere, think it was Minolta or something, I believe the idea behind it all was you could print decent quality photo's on standard cheap paper.

You set the document background to Black & the text to white & you have white on black (but it uses a lot of black ink or toner)
