    Good video, thought you might like these :)
    Black is "K" for "Key Color".
    Also, fun extra! Instead of inkjet, you can use laser jet printers to:
    1) Print lineart you can color in with alcohol-based markers
    2) Prink on acetate (clear) sheets and paint your own animation cell!

    You know I've been a computer tech since high school over ten years ago.... I learned several things I really should have already known...

      Printers are evil and as long as paper come out of printer, only thing I do is change the toner or ink and sometimes fix a jam.
      When the print comes out bad, I just push the buttons that tell it to clean or align the heads. No I will not take it apart and service it. I just tell them its more expensive to order parts for repair than purchasing a new unit, if they argue I also mention how much time I will be scraping my knuckles inside of it... AFTER the parts eventually arrive, fingers crossed.
      I know a bit more, but if anyone asks my response will remain "I don't know, and nobody does, printers are a scam to sell ink."

    This video was really entertaining!! I love the fact that you added subtitles, a list of timestamps, AND the history of printers, it was fun to watch. I also hope your website makes you tons of money 🤑

      Hahah thats called “save to watch later” and if you’re like me… you probably won’t watch it later 😂😂

    It was so calming to watch someone explain all of this so clearly and accurately!
    I tend to set my files to RGB and then try to select colors that are CMYK-safe. This offers the various technical advantages of RGB, but it also ensures that my colors will remain as vibrant as possible when printed. I also usually work in 600dpi, just to have more scaling options. Basically, all of your recommendations are the right ones, but I'm just neurotic about trying to make my art work in as many different contexts as possible 😅

    • @dragonfruitjaden

    It might also be useful to know what print settings yield the best results. Otherwise, fun video!

    8:13 So that's why it takes color to print black on a color printer. That paradox has been in the back of my brain for years now. thank you very much for making this video
