We bought an All-in-One Scanner a while back in hopes we’d get around to digitizing some of the 80 years of photographs we have in 20-30 photo albums. So far we’ve found it more useful as a copier (hey, organizing 1,500 photos is hard!).
The other day I got an alarm while copying telling me the ink was low. Since I’ve printed absolutely nothing in color, I made the assumption that it was the black ink cartridge that I’d used up. I bought a new cartridge but didn’t install it because I had no need of it yet.
Earlier today I tried to copy something, got the alarm again, and said “Aha! I’m ready for this. I have a new black ink cartridge!”
Only, when I checked the ink levels, it turned out that the black cartridge was fine; it was the magenta cartridge that ran dry.
Fudge.
