Pictures up to 12" x 18" are printed on our digital mini-lab. Printed on Kodak paper, processed in Kodak chemicals just like your photos from regular film.

Perform a Maintenance run at least once a month. Especially if you have not used your printer for some time. Never leave a cartridge in direct sunlight. This will cause the ink to expand and may lead to your cartridge leaking. Have your printer services regularly. Contact your printer manufacturer to find out when your printer’s service is due.

No, we cannot. In order to receive an automated rate (lower postage rate) the Post Office has very clear guidelines. They will not accept any addressing that includes italics or fancy fonts. Names and addresses are printed in capital letters in a plain font face.

While it's true that light and environmental conditions can made prints fade, the longevity of prints made from inkjet printers has dramatically increased in the last few years thanks to advances in inkjet technology. Canon now has the ChromaLife100 system, including Canon ChromaLife100 dye-based inks and select Canon photo papers.

If you own one of the new generation of inkjet printers, you can probably produce a Photo T-shirt, using an iron-on transfer. Printers from companies like Hewlett-Packard, Lexmark, Epson, Canon and others, can print to a specially coated paper that allows you to put any design or photograph on a variety of fabrics. First you'll need an image. You can scan it, use a digital camera or a video frame grabber or just use a downloaded file or any other file stored in your computer.

No, Federal law prohibits any company or person from requiring you to purchase their OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) product. The Federal Trade Commission protects your rights as a consumer to purchase the product or service of your choice. The Magnusson-Moss Warranty Federal Trade Commission Improvement Act, Subparagraph C, Section 101, states this consumer protection law.

Our customers often do this with great success. Our QSL cards, including lamino, are resistant to the high temperatures found in the fuser of laser printers. When printing with inkjet printers, you should try it first with one card to see if there are any issues. However, the vast majority of printers work just fine with our cardstock. Occasionally some types of printers will print a bit blurred. We can send you some free samples.

You should set the properties of the printer to High speed - Low Quality to save ink. Better yet, buy a Dot matrix printer and print on the pre-printed stationery, or a black Laser printer.

Yes, by using our waterproof inkjet vinyl AND over-laminate. The biggest concern is the UV resistance of the ink (not the water fastness). Use photo inks or "achievable" inks for longer outdoor life. Don't expect unrealistic long life from bumper stickers that can be made one at a time for pennies using your desktop equipment. Professional bumper stickers are made using screen printing and industrial UV proof inks.

No, PlumSmart is not prune juice. Prune juice is made by soaking dried plums (prunes) in hot water and then extracting the juice and solids. PlumSmart is made from fresh plums. The juice is extracted almost immediately after the fresh fruit is harvested. However, the plums are of the same variety as those which are dried to make prunes. PlumSmart delivers all the digestive benefits of prune juice, but is clear, tart-crisp, and refreshing.

In a warranty statement dated December 1993, Hewlett-Packard clarified its position on warranties. "For HP products, the use of a non-HP cartridge or a refilled print cartridge does not affect either the warranty to the customer or any HP support contract with the customer." If for any reason a Cirrus Imaging Supply cartridge causes a problem with your printer, you can bring us the printer and we will fix the problem free of charge.

Absolutely not! Once you put Inkjet inks into your printer, you dedicate it for that purpose. If you decide to upgrade to a different printer, you can reinstall Epson inks, but you cannot just switch back and forth between Epson and Inkjet inks with the same printer. The lines and print heads must be thoroughly cleaned when the inks are swapped.

This should be done before you are ready to print your image. Since each inkjet printer is different, it is always best to refer to the user's manual. If you don't have one handy, check to see if the inkjet printer has a function in the driver to clean the print head. Use regular bond paper when doing this. Another option is to use a small amount of rubbing alcohol on a Q-Tip and rub the print head very soft and gently. This should clear away any build up of ink.

You may not notice at first, but home inkjet printing is very expensive on ink and paper. Printer manufacturers make their money on these consumables: the cost of buying a printer is usually a lot lower than the actual cost of using one.

Most pre-cut off the shelf A4 sheet labels may be used in most ink-jet printers. However, we recommend A4 sheets that are specially manufactured for ink-jet printers, photocopiers and laser printers (1-6 pages per minute).

Both printers have advantages. However, the main criteria for making a decision of one over the other may be determined by budget (laser printers usually cost a lot more), requirements (what quality print are you in need of), demand (how many prints per month will you make), space (how large a foot print), speed (laser printers are usually faster) and cost per page (inkjet has a much higher cost per page.

Yes, all inkjet cartridges have a filling hole. When the cartridge is first made the manufacturer filled the cartridge with ink and then sealed the filling hole. All you are doing when refilling the cartridge is accessing the original filling hole and refilling it with ink. The Inkjet Refill System uses specially formulated ink, which works in any inkjet cartridge.

In our opinion, probably not. A lot of people purchase Dell printers when they buy computers, mostly because Dell is just giving them away, but not a lot of people know what they are getting. Dell printers are usually very expensive to operate and thus are not recommended.

There is no fundamental difference. BubbleJet™ and inkjet printers perform exactly the same task. They may go by different names, but they deliver the same results. For more information visit the inkjet printers page.

Both printers have valid advantages. The inkjet usually requires less of an investment up front, has a small footprint, has the color option and is quite good for photo production. However, the cost of producing a printed page is considerably more expensive. The laser is more of a production printer, however, you won't have the color option unless you budget approximately $1000.

No. It's actually an incredibly thin and light wetsuit with a four layer construction and a 0.5mm closed cell neoprene core. The joy of the Radiator is that you can wear it as a wetsuit by itself, or under your existing wetty - for extra warmth.

No, the printer we supply is guaranteed to work. It's specifications are matched exactly to the transfer paper, temperature and pressures we use.

Yes. The Universal Inkjet Refill System uses a specially formulated ink that works in any printer. When a cartridge is first made, the manufacturer filled the cartridge with ink & then sealed the filling hole. When refilling, all you are doing is accessing that original filling hole and adding more ink According to Hewlett Packard?, the use of a refilled print cartridge does not affect the warranty, unless failure or damage is attributable to it. This is typical of all manufacturers' warranties.

There are two types of printers to consider for your digital images: pigment-based and dye-based. Dye-based printers are versatile and work best at producing vibrantly colored photographic prints. Pigment-based printers are comparable to our photo-safe paper and our pens in that the ink is water- and fade-resistant. Printers that offer six colors of ink generally provide better photographic images. Both dye and pigment-based printers work well with Creative Memories Inkjet Photo Paper.

If you need to print out a lot of black text, I would recommend getting a laser printer, due to costs and speed. If you are an average user who prints out mostly documents, the occasional batch of vacation photos, and can not afford to buy a laser printer, get a normal desktop inkjet printer. The prints from a four color inkjet are as crisp and photo realistic as the photo printers, however they tend to look a bit dull without the additional color range.

Printers should be selected based on the type and volume of tasks. For instance, laser printers are best for fast text printing. Inkjets are required if you want to print photo-quality digital pictures. There are also multifunction inkjets that permit you to print, scan, and copy all on one machine. Before you buy a printer, check the costs for paper and ink or toner. Also, check to see if supplies can be purchased generally or if you need to buy from a specific vendor.

No, these are not inkjet prints. Our prints are made on Kodak or Fuji Professional Photo Papers via state of the art digital photo printers. They are then processed in conventional photo chemistry. They are real photographs in every sense of the word and should last 50 to 100 years with normal care.

Therefore, please ensure that you have the correct cartridge model number for your printer before you visit the store. Please note: Manufacturers only refund faulty cartridges if it can be proven to be faulty. The reason for this is that in many cases the machine and not the cartridge is at fault. If you are confident that the cartridge is at fault, bring the cartridge back with a test page that shows the problem.

No. Laser cartridges are made especially for laser printers. Inkjet printers use different technology and have their own special cartridges.

Yes! The United States Postal Service (USPS) has mailing envelopes to send smaller ink cartridges free of charge to be recycled or properly disposed of. Your dorm recycling representative may have some of these on hand, so ask. Hewlett-Packard (HP) recycles used cartridges, and they pay for shipping and everything. You can find out about their "ereturns" program.
