    Re: Ink suppliers?

    First off, there is a forum for grievances and suggestions, you didn't post there. 2nd, a simple Google search would supply you with a gadzillion hits. Why ask someone else to do your legwork for you? That's just being lazy. This site is free to use for all thanks to the banner ads and Google ads, if you didn't have them then this would become a paid site. I for one donate monthly AND I run a banner ad on the top of the screen that I pay a pretty penny for.
    You are right on one thing, we were all new once.

    Have a nice day,
    Paul

      Perhaps a list will be easier for you to digest?

      1. You have not read any of the posts that I have made based on your response above.
      2. I tried tons of keywords, any distributors that showed did NOT have alternative colors, standard yes (which I have)
      3. I can't post them here without breaking the rules
      4. I didn't ask anyone to search for anything for me, simply asked if someone was currently using a supplier or knew of any (The purpose of a forum, share information!)
      5. This forum is specific to my needs - if you have grievances why don't you post them there? You're the only irrelevant one here, posting in an ink thread when you sell ripped manuals.
      6. I have clicked on the sponsored links, most of them don't pertain to this topic at all and those that do didn't have what I needed.
      7. You're trolling a forum with the sole purchase of self-perpetuation, not contributing any value to the conversation. If you at all start to think that you're an asset you might want to re-think that as there are MANY scanned-manual merchants out there.
      8. With that said, I don't care that you donate or sponsor anything, how is that a contribution to this conversation?
      9. You have no right to discuss my post count (Or contribution) as yours is inflated by pushing "your" products on forum members.

      Can the admin please block justmanuals.com at this point? The contributing forum members here deserve more than this level of ignorance.

        It is my donations AND my banner ad that keeps this forum free to anyone who wants to post. Without my banner ad and others like it, you would have to pay to post here. As others have said, 'don't poke the bear with a stick' And like I said before, if you don't like the way this site is run, you're free to leave. Fewer than 1 % of my manuals are scanned, 99% of them come straight from the manufacturers. If a scanned manual doesn't meet my standards, than I don't offer it for sale. Your post is laughable. MY Posts are paid for, how about yours?

          Little hint for you: even if the manuals are from the manufacturer someone has the copyright on it (at least for the pictures in it) and without explicit permission you have no right to sell them. But I am sure you have all the permissions, as you represent a reliable business page with legal details, addresses, company information and accurate presented contact persons.

          And, be honest, is it really your money or is it the money you get from the folk here buying the manuals?

            It's my money when people from this site and worldwide buy my manuals. Just like when you get paid, it's your money.

              This is so off topic. YOU were the provocateur. I normally don't engage in this type of nonsense but in this case I think its important to bring your demeanor to the addition of the readers of this forum hopefully dissuading future members from purchasing from you.

              I'm glad that you pay for your posts as that is the only value they have. Don't come in here making it seem like you are supporting this out of the kindness of your heart, you do it because otherwise you wouldn't be able to litter your url all over the forum.

                You should ask the people some own the copyrights on the manuals you are selling if it is "your money"

                But there is sure a reason, that you have rented the URL and server as an anonymous...

                Or, to say it so clear that even you will understand it: Shut the f*** up and don't poke the bear, because if the bear is pi**ed he could help the copyright owners to get your site shut down. There are enough bored lawyers out there and what you are doing is clearly illegal.

                  Besides GM Supplies, who stock flo pink, the only place that I know of where you'll find fluorescent inks is on ebay or from a Risograph Dealer (who would order it from riso) Fluorescent and custom colours aren't available from any after market manufacturer as far as I know... I believe all you'll find in non-oem inks are the standard - black, red, blue, green and maybe grey and brown...

                  Where are you based jstefanski? regarding fluorescent inks, flo pink is all you'll find in North America. Flo Orange is available in other markets, to get it here you would have to make a min. order of 10 tubes with Riso (which goes for something like $800 + tax and shipping when I checked with my dealer.) Same goes for custom colours unless you can find a stash that another printer is reselling.

                    Re: Ink suppliers?

                    Thanks for your reply!

                    I've been checking ebay and ave found some ink, rarely do I run into anything special though. There is one ebay vendor that has a good variety of colors, even yellow which I found pretty hard to find.

                    I am based in Minnesota so I guess only flo pink here - I would love to get a little pink, a bright blue, etc. to bad.

                    That's steep! I couldn't afford that type of order for 1 color - for now I'll continue to add tubes for what I have (Yellow, med. blue, red, hunter green, yellow, black, and green). thanks again for help.
