Ii understand that you must purchase extra films for each picture, BUT where does the "ink" come from? what do you do if it runs out?

the cartridge has the ink and film. when the film runs out so does the ink.

All you have to do is buy some film. There is no ink. Hope this helped you. :)

Remember Polaroid cameras.....well this is like that....no ink, no developing....it's all in the film pack....just that easy.

There is no "ink" in film or instant cameras. The film is light sensitive. I suggest reading up on traditional film and how cameras work ;)

I've been using the printer for 5 months, and still have not run out of the colored inks. I am not a heavy user for photos, so can't actually directly answer your question. Since no one else has come forward, I thought I might offer a mathematical suggestion.Go to the printer maintenance picture where it displays the amount of ink you have in the cartridges. Print screen that and keep. Print a good number of your photos, over a few days or weeks, whatever, then print out the ink tank picture again. Compare the two printouts for ink levels, and may be able to give some imprecise indication of how much ink you are using.

nope, you cant buy the ink seperately and there is no other paper you can use but the canon that is made for this product. you have to buy the package which contains an ink casset and the paper. the ink and casset will run out together. I suggust buying the 108 which is 3x36 that way the cost is the cheapst. Another size I really like is the wallet size paper but you will also have to buy a tray for that one.

There is a small tray at the top with an ink pad that you can slide out and add more ink. Very simple.

all I can say is it does give you extra ink. I can't estimate how many pages. I print at home for my own pleasure so I really don't keep tract. All I can say is you get your money's worth. Hope this helps.

I don't know either. I haven't had a problem, mostly because A, I usually print in back and white; and B, I always keep a spare set of inks because if I run out, it's going to be after 11 at night!

I have never found just ink. I also have some extra paper but not a whole lot. Just had a lot one time when the ink cartridge jammed.

it depends on how big the cartridge is you are buying? it's stated on the box of the cartridge the amount of prints you will get from it.

I buy cartridges individually as each runs out of ink and only use Canon...Some are no longer individually on Amazon and get them from Office Depot. The Cyans don't come in boxes of 4 with standard colors.

Actually, I bought the wrong type of film when I purchased the camera for my 8-year old niece. It appears that what's available has expired, but I'm going to purchase one anyone if I'm unsuccessful finding it at a local camera shop.

When you are done you have to buy a new cartridge. The cartridges last for months.

The kit comes with three ink cartridges, and 108 sheets of paper. When one cartridge is empty it will tell you, and stop printing before a picture is started. once you change the ink it will continue. When you have printed all 108 sheets you are done. the ink comes on a roll of film. not in an ink cartridge. From the price I pay for a kit it works out to about .03 per photo. The prints are = to what you would get at any pharmacy at .10 to.15 per photo.

Yes, but you should buy an extra set of inks to be prepared when the supplied set runs dry.

I have searched everywhere and have found ink on eBay for outrageous amounts of money, in excess of 200.00. Kodak also referred me to amazon that showed a huge amount. I've given up. If you find any please let me know. Gennajim@yahoo.com. Sorry genna

I don't know, sorry. I always have a set of inks for when one runs out.BTW When not in use, this printer doesn't drain ink anywhere near as much as all the other printers I've owned.

That's just the way Kodak printers operate. I recommend always buying the black and color cartridges together so if one runs out, you'll have a back up and still be able to print.

it is introductory toner , so if you are printing a lot pages , it is best to buy additional ink
