I'd like to know what uses this ink has. What function or purpose have you or others found for this invisible ink?

Really, the only reason you would use this is for fun. I've put some secret notes in notebooks, or an easter egg in a note, or decorated a bill with it. But really, if you are using ink other than the "big four" (blue, black, red or green), you're really doing it either to be artistic or have fun.

I am sorry I can't answer that because I haven't used yet. I got when it was on sale. I hoped to have used, but haven't run out of other ink yet.

This same company also sells ink refills. They carry pigment ink and dye ink, i have used both and don`t really see a difference.

The ink is encased in the cartridges so I don't know how you could use your own ink. Sorry. I haven't had a problem with the ink or tried other methods of ink before.

I honestly don't have a precise length of time to answer this question. However, I can tell you with ALL certainty that the things I have drawn/written with this ink have lasted at the very least a YEAR and I don't have any doubt that it would last even longer because it's a permanent/bullet proof ink. I guarantee that you will not be disappointed. I have used Noodlers inks in the past and I truly enjoy their unique hues. This ink is a wonderful novelty and I am certain that if you are on the fence about buying it, you will not regret it! Tons of fun!!! AND it truly dries INVISIBLE. ***Word of caution, make SURE that ALL traces of the ink you may have used previously in the pen that this "Ghost" in will be going in is COMPLETELY cleaned OUT of the pen, or you WILL see this ink. At first, I thought that this ink had a very light blue hue to it and I could actually see it on the paper (I was getting discouraged that it wasn't actually invisible after all), but then I remembered I had previously used a blue in this pen. I really thought I had done a great job of cleaning it out, but when I disassembled the pen, I found a cranny of the piston housing had a small glob of the blue ink. Once I cleaned it out thoroughly, I did NOT see the ghost ink when I used it; it is TRULY invisible!!! Very impressive. AND bulletproof, meaning that it won't run under water and is tamper proof. I hope you enjoy the ink as I have! Cheers!

That's to keep the pen from being fully closed, preventing the ink cartridge from being opened. You remove it before using the pen.

I never sold you any ink. I cannot answer your question. I'm sorry. God bless you!!

I just got my printer a week ago. It sucks ink like a pig! I just printed a print ink report and only after 177 prints, mostly black and white copies, I am on my third set of all color cartridges. I weighed one of them, there was only one tenth of an ounce of ink in the yellow cart! That is $120 an ounce for each cartridge! HELP! I am looking for ways to save color ink. Can I turn off color for general internet web site printing? Does it take more ink to print borderless prints? Anyone else have this problem? I hate to take it back and get my old Epson back. bob

You could also look for a local ink refiller. There's a store where I live that refills ink cartridges. It's very cheap and they put over 20% more ink in the cartridge than the manufacturers. (They don't fill them up.)

I too am concerned that my colored ink continues to show that it is being used when we rarely use it. Can we run the MX700 without the color cartgridges installed?

It works very well, the ink does NOT clog or drip, it acts as if its a Factory Refill - Iam planning on Re-buy again from this seller.and it saves you a ton on money, just be sure to drill your access hole for new plug, on top of Cartg. so it cant seep into printer, and all will be well - good luck

I just tried using a dry erase marker on it. It works, and the ink comes off easily. If you have large piece of metal to attach the sheet to, it would do what you want.

I wouldn't use this ink for that. It's archival on paper. I would use black StazOn instead!

Oh, I don't have that kind of a printer. :) I only know I love this ink and have never had any problems with it! "Best to you."

excellent choice. I use it for photos, making greeting cards, and copies. Actually, I try tofind CL-51 .....same ink, larger quantity, so I don't have to change cartridges as often. I also would like to mention that a cartridge should NOT be removed until your replacement is ready to be installed as the spout should never be allowed to dry! I have been amazed at how many people are unaware of this, and actually remove a cartridge to bring to a store for identifying another purchase or for exchange! It can ruin your printer's quality!

How about ink usage? Will it print if one of the colors is out? Or, does it completely shut down and make you buy a new color cartridge before it will print again?Thanks.
