We wanted to inform our customers of a new venue that The Ink Stone will be working with. We have joined Twitter.

The reason behind this is to be able to quickly inform customers of what’s going on in the store.

For students, updates for supplies, print queues, and other informative bits.

For account customers, while this might not concern you, we will be updating about changes in-store.

Right now it’s in its infancy, so please pass the word around that we are @theinkstone

The attempt to recover the old files unfortunately failed so older files are inaccessible.

We are going to be building a new storage PC which should be completed next week.

Currently we are storing new files and will be transferring those files to the new storage PC at the end of next week.

Today, after 5 years of service, our in-house server has died. We will be attempting to recover the account data on the drives, but there will be a bit of a delay.

This will not stop our printing services, but older prints that we might have will not be accessible for at least the end of the week.

Hello Customers of The Ink Stone,

Recently you probably have noticed that the website has been inaccessible. This was partially due to the power surge/outage that happened in late March.

This outage damaged the server where we hosted theinkstone.com. While we were able to partially reconnect the FTP server, it was decided that a total overhaul of the site was necessary.

We moved the site while preparing it for its new launch which took an estimated 5-7 business days. We apologize for any inconvenience that this may have caused you, and this new site will maintain better support for the future.

What this means for you?
