An impressive attempt to establish colour inkjet printing in corporate workgroups.
It's certainly portable, but it's expensive and can't print on plain paper.
Imagine opening a book, leafing through its changeable pages and turning to a picture of a tiger ... that lunges out at you from the bindings.
A video game company could make this year's biggest splash in the digital camera market.A new camera from Nintendo (NTDOY), using technology several years old, snaps into the hand-held Game Boy gaming device and lets you take grainy, black-and-white pictures, which you can then manipulate on the Game Boy or print out with a grainy, low-resolution printer.
It's an inkjet's ability to deliver precise amounts of fluid in a precise stream that is key here. Instead of running ink you run water and drugs.
Some things fly under the radar from a technology standpoint. Printing is one of those things.
The new WorkCentre C2424 from Xerox is the first multi-function device (MFD) to be based on the company's exclusive solid-ink technology. It’s a high quality yet cost-effective all-in-one unit that prints, copies and scans A4 pages in full colour while offering many of the features of far more costly products. Until now, the choice has been between budget A4 inkjets at a few hundred, and expensive A3 lasers costing many thousands of pounds. Designed for workgroups of around twenty people, the C2424 sits between both camps, offering a more robust, powerful and flexible solution than an inkjet with the duty-cycle and range of features you’d expect from high-end office equipment -- only in an A4 format.
<p>Conventional wisdom tells us that although inkjets are fine for home use, when it comes to fast, high-volume, enterprise printing only a laser will do. However, HP's <a href=" http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/uk/en/sm/WF06b/5043-5527-13076152-13076152-13076204-13076256-78168689.html">CM8060</a> multifunction printer/copier turns that concept on its head, employing the company's Edgeline inkjet technology to print and copy in full colour at over 60 pages per minute. </p>
