PDF Form does not print with Black Ink

Just a warning people
You may get problems if you try printing the Membership Form using a black cartridge

I did put the colour cartridge back in and hey presto printed fine

I take it you're using either a lexmark/IBM/Xerox or an Epson printer?...onder:

Apollos use old HP technology, not Epsons - I've dealt with them before, let's say

They do indeed throw wobblies INSERT INTO post VALUES (technical term) when asked to print colour when the correct cartridge isn't fitted. And likewise, if there's only a colour cartridge in and you try and print black, you'll get a nasty, mottled brown colour.

Epsons can be worse - they will not print whatsoever unless there's both a black and a colour cartridge in the printhead carrier, and they must *both* have some ink in - even if you're only printing black!!

Thanks for the Info Kieran

Yeah noticed the nasty colour thing more like a duck egg green colour :eek:

My one is that crappy you can only have 1 or the other cartridge plugge in
:rolleyes:
