It won’t print if it’s out of yellow ink bc it uses the yellow ink to print tiny microscopic information on everything you print so the government can track you
You think I’m dramatic. Have you ever met a printer 🙄🙄 I don’t care if you are out of yellow I’m printing black and white words.

Seconding this because this is actually how printers work 😭 the little dots are usually in the corner if I’m not mistaken but like you can’t see them

That, plus it uses some color ink for better blacks…. Weird, but that’s color theory

It can do that too. If you send an anonymous letter anywhere in the world, authorities can trace the exact printer used, determine when and where it was sold, and follow other clues that can ultimately identify you.

It’s what the dull yellow numbers are on US bills, prevents compliant photocopiers/scanners from manipulating it
