The Future Of Inkjet Cartridges - Part II
Copyright (c) 2007-2023 Rich Martin
Awhile back I wrote an article about the "Future of Ink Cartridges", which stirred up some interest to say the least. The reason for this was that you would no longer need a toner cartridge to print a document or a photo. Enabled printers will change the way the world thinks about printing and image making. They won't require ink cartridges or ribbons, so they are extremely small and are not affected by gravity. They can be pocket-sized or be embedded into almost any electronic device.
But don't throw out your ink cartridges just yet. This may take some time to come to market. In the meantime, we can surely discuss what the impacts are likely to be for us, the consumer, and on big corporations, i.e. Lexmark and HP. For now, you will need your old fashion toner cartridges to print your documents. Not to worry, http://www.Tonerr.com can fulfill your printing equipment needs in the interim with great prices and many high quality brands.
What impact is this new technology going have on the consumer? Well, looking at the pluses, better quality prints and photo's than you get now with the old conventional laser printers. Why? The secret is in the paper. Special photo paper is comprised of dye crystals that are set in the paper. Before the printing process begins, the dye crystals become clear, making the paper look like a regular piece of white photo paper, but when run through a special-enabled printer, heat triggers the dye crystals to add color. The result is a high quality digital print or photo, and the best part, NO INK CARTRIDGES.
Mobility is another new plus. You are going to be able to take a picture with your electronic devise, say an I-phone, and be able to print a copy or photo at that instant. You will be able to send a digital photo from a cell phone using the Bluetooth wireless system. About 30 seconds later, a wallet-size color photo will emerge from a tiny slot on the end.
Cost may be a plus. The cost of a small printer that uses this technology will be around $100 as a ball park number, but that could potentially change. Remember the Polaroid camera. Its cost was high when it first came out, so even though technology has come a long way, it would still be spectacle about its cost. The camera is expected to cost roughly $200.
What is the impact going to be on the major printing supply companies? What would you think? I think initially not much, but as the new technology this company is touting becomes known, the big company margins will start to suffer. Once this becomes widely accepted and sales are at a peak, they will eventually license their technology to all and get an additional revenue source as a result, while the Lexmark's of the world spin their wheels trying to get on board.
I think this new technology will be available sometime in 2008. So, keep checking my blog or web-site for more updates.

I do not know about you, but I do remember the days of the first
Polaroid camera that would develop a black and white or color
picture in just one minute. Wow, at that time, it was great. You
did not have to wait days to receive your pictures. I know I am
dating myself, but there is a reason why I am telling you this
story. There could be a similar story brewing for the future of
inkjet cartridges.

Computer printers are great when they work correctly, but when
they do not work as they should, they can become a real source of
frustration. If you know how an inkjet printer works, then you
are likely to have fewer problems with it and you are more likely
to be able to make simple repairs to the printer yourself.

consider improving the safety of their vehicles. One of the best
safety improvements available on the market is the addition of a
big brake kit. Brakes are obviously critical in any car. But if
the horsepower in a vehicle has been amplified, and the breaks
have not been adjusted to accommodate that horsepower, it is
likely that problems will occur.

Current economic trends are forcing more and more companies to
look for creative ways to reduce spending. When Senior Management
decides to cut the budget across the board, even IT departments
feel the crunch. That is why CTO's and IT Directors now have a
new mandate. They must scrutinize every dollar they are spending,
and make a decision as to what expenses are tied to 'must
haves' versus 'nice to haves'.
