Aside from price drops, the printer industry hasn’t come out with anything revolutionary in almost 20 years or so. A New technology called Memjet is set set to change all that by being the first printing technology that actually excites us instead of putting us to sleep. M. David Stone over at PC Magazine has an article about the future of printing, and if MemJet’s promises ever to come through, then it will indeed be a great future for everyone except trees. Memjet claims to have the power to print a letter-sized paper at 60 pages per minutes, each with a 1,600- by 1,600-dot-per-inch resolution. Not only that, but Memjet will also be able to print across the whole width and length of a paper unlike most traditional consumer printers. Sounds too good to be true so it will probaly cause an arm and leg, right? According to the Silverbrook research, the company behind the technology, the printers will be available in 2008 for $200 to $300 while a photo printer using Memjet technology will cost about $150. We’ll believe it when we see it. In meanwhile, plan an early retirement for your inkjet if this ever really does happen.
