Hi

I wanted to make a video regarding the price increase in energy and I need to print dozens of £50 notes for the actors (Gas & Electric) to throw up in the air after "Robbing" me of all the money I have in the world.. I can't get HP Deskjet 1050 to print one side of a £50 note I bought from China specifically for this video completion. As these are printed on the face side and then bundled up to give the impression of wards of money it seemed an easy task until I tried to get the HP printer to print it. It came back telling me this is against the law.

But it's pointless arguing with a machine as they can't comprehend your situation, can they?

 

Is there any way I can get this printer to do a one-off and print bundles of cash for my video masterpiece?
