John, Kodak's new "ColorQube" printer series uses a solid resin ink that is similar in texture to crayon. The cartridges stay in the printer, and you feed in the blocks of solid ink. Colors available from Kodak are black, cyan, magenta, and yellow.
I would not say Kodak or someone else couldn't come up with a white ink for these printers, but it may be very unlikely unless there is a major market for it. BTW, ink replacement for these printers: the smallest desktop: 1 carton black ink: 4 sticks: $149 makes approx 8,600 prints 1 carton each color ink: 2 sticks: $176 makes approx 4,300 prints so if you're buying all four colors that's $677 The large floor models use larger cartridges that are considerably more expensive. It might be easier and a lot cheaper to come up with a white ink that fits a standard laser printer cartridge Darrell S. --- In [email protected], "John" <armstong5717@...> wrote: > > I recently got an E mail from Kodak (I think) as I have a Kodak printer.
