Printer saya kehabisan tinta, jadi saya belum bisa mencetak alamat pada amplop itu.

Kehabisan means to run out of something.

It comes from:

• habis = finished, used up
• ke- -an = a pattern that often gives the sense of experiencing a state or ending up with too little / none left

So:

• kehabisan tinta = to run out of ink

A very common pattern is:

• kehabisan uang = to run out of money
• kehabisan waktu = to run out of time
• kehabisan bensin = to run out of gas/fuel

In this sentence, Printer saya kehabisan tinta literally feels like My printer has run out of ink.

Because the thing that has run out of ink is the printer, not the speaker.

• Printer saya kehabisan tinta = My printer has run out of ink
• Saya kehabisan tinta printer would mean I have run out of printer ink

Both can be possible in different situations, but they are not the same.

The original sentence focuses on the printer’s condition, which is natural because the lack of ink is what prevents printing.

Indonesian often repeats subjects when starting a new clause, especially after connectors like jadi.

So:

• Printer saya kehabisan tinta, jadi saya belum bisa...

is very natural and clear:

• first clause: talks about my printer
• second clause: talks about I

If you removed the second saya, the sentence might sound less clear because the subject changes from printer saya to saya.

Here, jadi means so, therefore, or as a result.

It connects cause and result:

• Printer saya kehabisan tinta = My printer has run out of ink
• jadi saya belum bisa mencetak... = so I can’t print yet...

Common uses of jadi:

• Hujan, jadi kami tinggal di rumah. = It’s raining, so we’re staying home.
• Saya sibuk, jadi saya tidak datang. = I’m busy, so I’m not coming.

This is an important difference.

• tidak bisa = cannot / am not able to
• belum bisa = cannot yet

So:

• saya tidak bisa mencetak = I can’t print
• saya belum bisa mencetak = I can’t print yet

Belum suggests the situation may change later. In this sentence, the speaker probably expects to print once the ink is replaced.

That makes belum bisa a very natural choice.

Bisa means can / be able to.

The structure is:

• belum = not yet
• bisa = can
• mencetak = to print

So:

• belum bisa mencetak = cannot print yet

This is a common Indonesian pattern:

• Saya bisa datang. = I can come.
• Saya belum bisa datang. = I can’t come yet.
• Dia bisa membaca. = He/she can read.

The base word is cetak, meaning print.

With the prefix meN-, it becomes mencetak, which is an active verb meaning to print.

This is a very common Indonesian verb formation:

• cetak = print
• mencetak = to print

The prefix changes shape depending on the first sound of the root. With cetak, the result is mencetak.

Similar examples:

• baca → membaca = read
• tulis → menulis = write
• kirim → mengirim = send

So mencetak alamat means to print the address.

Both pada amplop itu and di amplop itu can be understood, but pada often sounds a bit more formal or appropriate when talking about something being written, attached, or placed on a particular object.

So:

• alamat pada amplop itu = the address on that envelope

Here, pada is functioning a bit like on in the sense of something appearing on a surface or item.

In everyday speech, many speakers might also say:

• mencetak alamat di amplop itu

That is also understandable and common in casual usage.

So the difference is not huge here:

• pada = a little more formal/written-style
• di = very common, everyday location marker

Itu means that.

In Indonesian, demonstratives usually come after the noun:

• amplop itu = that envelope
• printer itu = that printer
• alamat itu = that address

This is different from English, where that comes before the noun.

So the word order is:

• noun + itu

Usually printer saya most directly means my printer.

Depending on context, saya can sometimes indicate something associated with the speaker rather than strict ownership, but in most everyday situations learners should understand it as:

• printer saya = my printer

Other similar examples:

• rumah saya = my house
• teman saya = my friend
• kantor saya = my office / the office where I work

So yes, context can affect the exact nuance, but my printer is the normal reading.

Indonesian does not use articles like a, an, and the the way English does.

So nouns often appear without any article:

• tinta = ink / the ink
• alamat = address / the address
• amplop itu = that envelope

Whether something is definite or indefinite is usually understood from context.

In this sentence:

• tinta clearly means the ink in the printer
• alamat refers to the address being printed
• amplop itu is definite because itu specifies it as that envelope

Yes. Amplop is the standard Indonesian word for envelope.

It is a very common everyday word.

Examples:

• Saya membeli amplop. = I bought envelopes/an envelope.
• Masukkan surat itu ke dalam amplop. = Put the letter into the envelope.

So pada amplop itu simply means on that envelope.

Yes. A simpler, more conversational version could be:

• Printer saya habis tinta, jadi saya belum bisa mencetak alamat di amplop itu.

This version changes two things:

• kehabisan tinta → habis tinta
• pada amplop itu → di amplop itu

That sounds a bit more everyday and casual.

The original sentence is still completely natural. It just sounds slightly more polished or formal.

The sentence has two clauses joined by jadi:

1. Printer saya kehabisan tinta

   • Printer saya = subject
   • kehabisan tinta = predicate

2. jadi saya belum bisa mencetak alamat pada amplop itu

   • jadi = so / therefore
   • saya = subject
   • belum bisa mencetak = verb phrase
   • alamat = object
   • pada amplop itu = prepositional phrase describing where the address is to be printed

So the overall structure is:

• Cause: my printer ran out of ink
• Result: I can’t print the address yet

That cause-and-result flow is very common in Indonesian.
