About this sound

An AI-generated sound effect: “printer printing pages, inkjet passes”. Quality-checked before listing, free for commercial and personal projects — videos, games, podcasts, apps and client work. No royalties — just credit BudgetPixel AI.

Direct file: WAV · 44.1 kHz — both WAV and MP3 are on the download button.

Editor's note (9.0/10): This is a clear, accurate match for the requested inkjet printer printing pass, with only faint unobtrusive background hum that does not impact its usability.

Do I have to credit BudgetPixel to use "Inkjet Printer Passing"?
Yes — crediting BudgetPixel AI is the one condition of the licence, and downloading still needs no account. Put the credit line from this page wherever your project lists sources: a video description, end credits, show notes, or a game's credits screen.
What format and length is "Inkjet Printer Passing"?
"Inkjet Printer Passing" runs 4 seconds and downloads as WAV at 44.1 kHz, with MP3 on the same download button. Both formats carry the identical licence, so pick whichever your editor prefers — WAV for layering and pitch work, MP3 when file size matters.
Can I use "Inkjet Printer Passing" in a monetised YouTube video?
Yes. Monetised video is explicitly permitted. BudgetPixel never registers library audio with Content ID, and because this sound effect is licensed to everyone non-exclusively under CC BY 4.0, no one can hold the exclusive rights Content ID requires. If a claim ever appears, dispute it and cite this page and its licence.
