Do these print only in monochrome, and can you add art to the labels?

The printer is capable of monochrome (black/white- not greyshade) graphics at fairly low resolution. I use Endicia software on the standard ($9.95/mo.) plan, and have not found an option to add graphics. So the answer is yes, the printer can print crude graphics, but only if your labeling software supports it.

You can just about print anything you want o the label. You can take pictures that you have downloaded onto your computer and upload them onto the label. Look under backgrounds and you will see that you can use your own backgrounds.

Yes, you could. I printed on them and then wrote with pen, but they're the same texture as regular labels (kind of like regular paper), so colored pencils would work fine.

Yes you can print "Gray scale", which is black & white. This a great feature since black ink is cheaper than colored. FYI...I had mine for 5 years now & have no problem finding affordable ink. I just bought a 20 pack of black & colored for $11.00 on Amazon. I have always bought "compatible" in cartridges & have not had one problem.

I believe that they're jpeg. You might also be able to output in png or bmp. Everything is in low resolution red and cyan format, so I really doubt it's suitable for any 3D printer.

I use these labels all the time for Etsy, Ebay and Facebook sales. What I do is cut them in half. Then the printer only prints what I need for shipping, including international packages.

I'm not sure. I'm going to guess no. But they are fine for regular printing.

Yes. You will be notified that color toner is low, and you can choose to print in black (grayscale) only.

Mr. Coleman:I only print photographs with this printer and it does an excellent job with color prints. However, Black and White prints are a bit iffy, as they may include color casting, i.e., green, blue, red.

There's no option to use basic colors. You can print color or your can print grayscale, but you can't limit color printing to certain cartridges.

Yes, You can choose between Auto, Color or Mono in the Printing Preferences (right-click printer icon) and also on a case-by-case basis by changing the settings on the print dialog. As others have stated, you cannot print if one cartridge is "empty", but this can be bypassed by resetting the cartridge through the printer menu. Google it or check on YouTube for detailed instructions.

No- they are completely plain with no writing or engraved labels. Hope this helps!

I don't know the answer when you're printing full color, but when you print grey scale or B&W, you can force the printer to use black only (through the print options.)

I am not - but beware - I bought black and all the colors, and these do NOT work in the printer!

I have not printed pictures on plain paper only once. Black was not jet black, neither were the other colors vibrant. They were on Epson premium gloss paper but inside photos appeared darker than I would like.

If you are specifying "grayscale" or "black & White" in the print command, you have right to expect the printer to print it so. If you leave it to s/w to decide whether you need yellow, it won't.

Yes, but you have to specifically select "Gray scale" in the printer properties. The default behavior is to not print when a cartridge is empty. So when my color cartridges went out I just switched to gray scale to continue printing and I have no plans of replacing the color cartridges.
