    Sony Dye Sublimation printers

    I got the FP-70 recently and think it's a great printer. But I notice that my prints have a barely visible vertical line running down one side of the paper (right hand side when seen in landcape format).

    Xinyao chords

    Does anyone know where I can find Xinyao chord books? I'm hoping to get some as a gift. I've seen Liang Wen Fu's <Xie Yi Shou Ge Gei Ni> and there are some chords inside, but the book's size make it not so 'user' friendly.

    CMYK black?

    Need help with this: I'm printing some namecard-sized calenders for the office, but the printer says my black is not 0C/0M/0Y/100K.
