This is kind of like cash burning a hole in your pocket. Know the feeling? You've got something, ready to use, you just don't have the means by which to use it yet. You want to use it really really badly, but something is getting in your way. It's eating at you, sticking in the back of your mind, buzzing in your ear like a mosquito. Or in this case, a cheap 3-in-one printer that decides to run out of ink as you're about to print proofs for your Etsy shop. Boo on you, 3-in-one printer and your bad timing!
I was really excited last week when I got a record 7 designs done! Well, ok, it's only a record because I just started this business not even 2 months ago and only have 5 designs... but that's besides the point! The point is, I was motivated, set aside time to print and do a photo shoot, and (insert gross squishy noise here), there goes my printer. I can't complain too much, though. They say you get what you paid for, and I paid $29.99 plus tax for this thing! Oh well, it gets the job done. It just eats up ink like I drink water. Or like my car guzzles gas. $40 to fill up... and I'm assuming that's cheap compared to some of YOUR cars out there. And I hope I don't lose any of my 9 followers (make that 8, I can't include myself...) by saying SUV owners are crazy! I heard someone the other day who said they put over $100 in their SUV to fill up! Madness. All the power to you for being able to do that (did I just save myself from losing you, teetering follower?)
So I FINALLY printed these designs today. My printer told me I was out of black, so that's what I got. And it definitely fixed the problem. Too bad the ink light is blinking again, because I'm also about to run out of cyan. Why oh why did I get a printer that takes 4 separate cartridges? Oh yeah... because it was $30!
