0 TheChad08 Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 Here's an alternate answer. An ink ribbon. Black when you get get it. It is "read" when you use it. White when there is no ink left. Although I don't know if a used ink ribbon would be white at the end, but it is a possibility. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
