Where would you put the Gray ink?

My Cannon printer does not have a slot for the gray ink either, but I guess maybe some machines do? For the price, I couldn't pass up the deal. So far, the ink seems to be working fine; I have not had any problems with it.

If your printer actually uses Gray ink then there's a position in the ink cartridge holder for it. If your printer doesn't use Gray ink then you can't make any good use of it. I rather suspect the other ink cartridges may actually all be used in some models so if sets are sold specifically for those printers then there would be no gray in the "kit". However, it's not unknown for bigger packaged sets, including the Gray, to actually cost less than the smaller sets intended for those printers. Just be careful to buy only cartridges that will work in the printer you have.

Printers that print photo quality often have an ink slot for the gray cartridge.

You can use charcoal. Or anything. It works pretty nicely. Though it may smear on to another page. It won't bleed through.

Hello Zack,To the change the Ink, open the flatbed. It opens right above the paper tray. The ink cartridges have a latch. To remove an ink cartridge, press the latch of the ink cartridge and pull straight up.To insert an ink cartridge, remove the orange tape from the feed hole at the bottom of the cartridge. Find the color coded slot for the cartridge that you are replacing, press the cartridge straight down into the slot until the latch is secure.

A small orange color piece is provided with inks. Insert it where the door closes and the printer sees it as door closed. Make sure to change all inks at the same time. These inks works like a charm. Every print that comes out of my printer makes me feel good about the price I paid for these extra large cartridges.

You could, being as it's ink. But I would strongly recommend returning it if its not open and buying the regular stuff, being as the inkjet shrinky dinks are twice the price than the regular ones.

Ha. Have just been doing some reading at (www).slate.com/id/2198316/ as well as (www).inkjetfraud.com/feedback/index.html If these sites are accurate, then I was correct in noticing that it was using colored ink, in spite of my software settings to grayscale. I also learned why I might not want to necessarily run the ink jet printer with no colored ink--one site says the print heads might overheat???) However, I'd be willing to be there's a way around this constant out-of-colored-ink b.s. Will keep searching to find a solution like the toner-cartridge solution that guy came up with. Ha.

I would just let it soak in a small bucket until the entire cartridge is under water. Let gravity do the rest.

I put some velcro and stick it on the side of the printer, is very small so is not intrusive.

Twist the bottom of the pen counter-clockwise holding the top part still in your hand until it fully retracts Or twist the top which is my favorite, counter clockwise holding bottom still to have pen retract, the opposite to have the ink cartridge to come out. No more marks on your shirt or anywhere else. I also use Fischer Space pen insert BOLD type, writes like a dream!! Have a great one!

If you have a continuous ink system you just put right in the ink reservoir. You can also put it into a cartridge but only in measure amount otherwise the cartridge may leak. You may also need to reset the chip on the cartridge or it will keep saying the ink levels are low despite plenty of ink in it.

You can set the default setting to just use black ink. You can even put security settings that only certain people can use the color ink.

I just leave the top I open when I scan books, and it works fine. You can save a default with your preferences, so I'd guess you can set it to economy (grayscale). I've never tried though. I usually use color.

Set it to print to Black and White print as a default. It is probable pulling from all the colors. If you are printing web pages, then they come out gray when all the colors are used.

I filled mine by dipping in ink. It should not be a hard start to write. If anything dip in ink or rub a damp paper towel across the nib

Take off the gray and then I used to use a coin in the corner and moved it in an angle so it could lift up

Open up your printer and see if you have a 226 gray cartridge...if not you don't need it

Put the envelope in through the front guides with the top of the envelope to the left. Let the printer "grab it" and you are ready to hit print!
