Ink is how much!?
The digital gage on the screen said that the printer would not make it to the next fill station. When I did a nozzle check, the computer refused and showed white squares where cyan, magenta, and yellow should be. So I made the trek to Staples and prepared for sticker shock. Ouch! Compared to ink, gas is el cheepo. I would have placed an online order somewhere but I have a class next week. A small creative writing course to take the edge off the blandness that is November. Restocked the pen shelf too. I use a Paper-Mate Ink Joy 700 RT 1.0 m filled with black ink and a Bic AI 1.0 filled with blue. I use the black to write and the blue to make corrections and notes. If you ever get a chance try out the Paper-Mate, do so. The flow is as close to a fountain pen you can get without the mess.
