Canon hawk a super-compact Selphy photo printer

If you ask me, it's a good job the palms of people's hands are generally so compact, otherwise what would manufacturers describe their tiny products as fitting into?  "Fits into your small-intestine" just doesn't have the same 'buy me!' ring to it.  Anyway, Canon is latest to roll out that old chestnut, claiming their Selphy CP740 photo printer is, yes, small enough to fit in your hand.  It'll spit out a fresh 4x6 in 58 seconds.   Read The Full Story

Haier LCD can print out screenshots

, May 15th 2007 Discuss [0]

Before the days of the internet, people watching cookery programmes on TV would have to develop very speedy writing hands in order to copy down a recipe from the screen before it disappeared.  It was the difference between a delicious roasted duck breast with plum coulis and an unpleasant, flat cake that tastes like dung.  What they really could have done with is some way to take a screenshot, printing it out for later and leaving them free to concentrate on hoping the chef scalds himself.  Well, several years too late, Haier are planning to release a TV that, among HDMI and USB, has a "printer port".   Read The Full Story

Epson wins first round of lawsuit against illegal cartridge manufacturers

We all know that manufacturers make a ton of money off of ink cartridges. We know this because we fork over a lot of money for a piece of plastic, a chip and a few drops of ink. So naturally, as consumers we try to find the cheapest possible prices on said cartridges. For some, they find it cheaper to purchase their ink from manufacturers overseas. Don't expect to continue doing that for long. Read The Full Story

Lexmark E120n Laser Printer Reviewed: Can cheap really be cheerful?

, Mar 21st 2007 Discuss [4]

Scroll your memory truffles back ten years, flick open a catalogue of printers and tell me the cheapest monochrome laser you can find. Bowel-shattering, isn’t it. And yet for the past few weeks in my lounge-cum-banquette-seating-area I’ve had a networked laser printer that you can pick up for less than $100 online (or under £80 in the UK); it’s the E120n and it’s made by the lovelies at Lexmark.

The printer that fits in your pocket

So you've just taken a great picture of your friend doing something really crazy on your cell phone. Now what if your best bud wants a copy of it? Well, soon you can just whip out your handheld printer from ZINK and print out a nice 2x3 of him acting like an idiot. Basically the printer is about the size of an average cell phone that can print off pictures using a specialized piece of paper. The picture is created by heating up and putting varying amounts of pressure on the polymer paper. The obvious upsides to this unit is the fact that it has no liquid ink. No ink = no mess. This unit is still in testing, so we've not seen just how well the pictures turn out. Who knows, if it does well enough, this could be something to revolutionize the printing industry. Pricing is expected to be around $99 for the printer and around $19.95 for a 100 pack of paper. The only thing you'll have to worry about is what your friend will do when he finds out you've made copies of his little incident for everyone.
