Colorqube

The new multifunction device, called the ColorQube, uses solid ink originally invented at Tektronix to generate prints.

Der US-Druckerspezialist Xerox hat eine neues Farbdrucksystem vorgestellt, dass 50 Seiten in der Minute drucken, die Umwelt schonen und auch noch günstig sein soll. Die ColorQube-Geräte nutzen eine Weiterentwicklung des Festtintendrucksystems, bei dem feste Blöcke aus Wachs statt Tinte oder Toner die Farbe liefern. Die Drucker können auch Kopieren, Scannen und Faxen und sind von ihrem Hersteller für den Einsatz in Büros vorgesehen.

Xerox bietet drei verschiedene ColorQube-Modelle an, die über ein LAN-Netzwerk vom gesamten Büro aus genutzt werden können.
