    Printer question

    I have a Canon TS 9120 printer. It has 2 black ink cartridges. Why does it have two black cartridges? I printed something and it was obvious the black cartridge(s) are empty. I would think one cartridge would empty first, then the other? Why is that? Do I need to replace both?

    Copy mp3s from computer to Android phone

    I want to copy music(mp3s) from my computer to Android phone. I can not find a directory on my phone to put them. I tried send them in an email to myself and it works, but with only one or 2 songs at a time. I have about 150 megabits of songs. Is there some other way? Thanks.

    Killall Gimp
