TBH this is probably the last set of ink cartridges I'm buying for this printer. I seldom print anything, and when I do, months have gone by since the last time, so even brand new cartridges have had time to dry up. It's an inherent problem for all ink-jet printers (prove me wrong), and I'm much happier with my laser ones.
But, laser printers can't print on CDs/DVDs. It's the only reason I still have something ink-based. But my patience is wearing thin.

Yes, like my ink supply when it's simply left alone for months...

I had the same problem, and got so fed up I dumped the inkjet at the recycling centre and got a laser.
Now when I want to print, I plug it in, print, and unplug it - I don't have to wait 20 minutes for the damn heads to clean enough to print straight, or have to swap half the set of cartridges I fitted last time I used it as it no longer recognises them.
Domestic inkjets are a PITA and I want nothing more to do with them!

I haven't yet managed to get my donkey off the ground to buy myself a decent photo printer, but some day I will.
The last few years, ink jets have seemed to be the only serious alternative for large format (at least A3 width) and continuous media printing, and a liberty in media selection. (Some of the ink jet models provided printing on canvas, although they were in the expensive class.)
Which are the laser alternatives for minimum A3 with continuous 200 g/m2 paper? How does the color quality of these printers compare to the ink jet models?

I don't use an A3 printer, so I can't really help you.

Last year I purchased an HP Ink Tank printer. It's wireless and visible to all my computers. It has printed lots of stuff and still going strong on the original ink tanks. HP claims they are good for 2 years of printing. The only problem is it's an HP with all their red tape (no-pun intended). It has only mal-functioned once but reboot fixed that. I am done with ink-jets. Researching my next printer, maybe a color laser. Just like Vince Lombardi said about football player injuries "it's always the knees". Well in home computer world "it's always the printer".

Ianai - Elitha[^]
Didn't know this band until last week, when Spotify recommended it to me.
Apparently, little is known about Ianai, judging from this album review: "Ianai is a "single-entity" project shrouded in mystery. Its secretive mastermind Trevenial offers twelve tracks influenced by folk music across the globe, equally evocative and primitive."
While Sunai is their debut album, it features guest appearances by notable acts such as HIM, Sisters of Mercy, Swallow the Sun, and The Rasmus.
The music has elements of folk, darkwave and post-rock.
Acts such as Sólstafir, Sigur Rós and maybe some Heilung come to mind.
Awesome debut and SOTW!

I must thank you again for presenting Shpongle as I have found the selections which I have played so far quite catchy. I look forward to playing another each day.

I'm happy you're still enjoying it three weeks later!

Øtta is nice, didn't know her.
This stuff sounds better live though (preferably with some alcohol)
I do love me some electro swing from time to time.

Yeah, this guy isn't unknown.
I think he's mostly known for Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence (as composer and actor, though I haven't seen it).

... given we have a Bank Holiday over here and it is a Brit setting. Of course, being a Welshman Pete may or may not be overly excited about proceedings.
I just wish the TV companies would take it seriously and provide a bit of coverage* ...
*For those not in the UK this should have massive sarcasm tags as the coverage is now so blanket-like you can turn on TV 24 hours a day to watch the queue of people waiting to walk past a coffin. And "news" involves asking people why they're waiting in a queue to walk past a coffin.

If I may,
Why would anything on codeproject.com be subject to United Kingdom holidays? Does the UK government lay claim to this domain?
|
|
|
|

Just going by precedent on other Bank Holidays.
pkfox might be too grief-stricken to be able to oblige.
And of course HMQ was head of state 15 countries (with several dozen more in the Commonwealth) even if the USA did resign from the club some time ago. So, slightly wider than a UK holiday ...

So let's be clear for all the world to see. Are you making the claim that codeproject.com has historically been under the control of Her Majesty the Queen and that moving forward will continue?
At this juncture I'd like to ask @chris-maunder and @davidcunningham to confirm this. Members of the community need to know under what jurisdiction the site is operated.
This is a formal inquiry.
Best Wishes,

Quite obviously I am not claiming any such thing. Just asking a question about the ccc.
|

Well,
I would like a statement from @chris-maunder or @davidcunningham confirming that we cannot post puzzles on United Kingdom holidays. Codeproject is an international site, there are so many holidays to honor. We need clarification on the subject.
