Toshiba News

Tuesday, December 18th, 2012

It has come to my attention a multi function printer with a difference which is going to be released in the market soon.  Firstly it is going to be released in Japan February 2013 and then a worldwide roll out.

Toshiba E Studio 306LP/RD30

tprinter

This printer set up is in two separate parts one is the printer 306LP the other part RD30 This removes the toner cartridge from a printed document so you can reuse the paper over and over again. It is the first printer combination to do this.

It can do this by using a special toner put in the Printer itself then  when the paper is put through the RD30 it heats  the toner  to a high temperature and deletes the toner colour from the page.

It also copies the documents in a digitised format before you delete it so you still have a copy available.

The printer itself also has a lower carbon foot print as it will be made out of bio plastics (plastics that are bio gradable)

In eco terms this is a great saving of resources, paper that would normally be either filed away or destroyed is being reused. We may not have a paperless office but this will reduce the bulk of paper that is stored.

Lexmark has decided to pack up its printers and leave the inkjet printer race for good.

Originally an offshoot of IBM Lexmark was once amongst the market leaders HP, Canon and Epson.  But with reclining sales and new technology Lexmark have fallen behind.

It was announced that they are going to stop development and technology by 2013 and close down their inkjet supplies factory in the Philippines by 2015.

Job losses of 1,700 are expected worldwide with 1,100 from manufacturing.

This won’t be an end to Lexmark. They are looking to save £60m a year to strengthen other areas. Below is a quote from Paul Rooke, Lexmark chairman and chief executive officer.

“Today’s announcement represents difficult decisions, which are necessary to drive improved profitability and significant savings.

Our investments are focused on higher value imaging and software solutions, and we believe the synergies between imaging and the emerging software elements of our business will continue to drive growth across the organization”

What does this means for consumers?

Lexmark are still keeping their after sales support and their aftermarket sales for the moment so there is no need to panic.

Lexmark and Cartridge Discount will continue to sell their ink products and if this changes we will let you know.

How to print better photographs

Thursday, July 5th, 2012

The summer holidays are soon upon us.  There are a few factors or things to consider when printing your photographs, the printer you use, the paper quality,  the camera that you use even effects your print quality.  Here are a few suggestions to improve the quality of the photographs you can print.

1) If you are looking to buy a new printer and you print a lot of photographs consider looking for a printer that is capable of printing photographs and graphics in a higher resolution.  If you also look for 48 bit colour support and scanning dpi (dots per inch) resolution of no less than 2,400

2) Also consider buying designated photo printer which will produce better results as it is designed specifically to print photographs.

3) Use photo paper instead of the normal mainstream printer paper making sure it is compatible with your printer.

4) Take care of your printer Check your manual for any maintenance procedures or cleaning that you can do.

5) When printing, check your printer settings to see if you can set it to print on the highest quality photo prints.

6) Before taking your photographs, if you check in your camera settings and you can select the resolution to be on maximum size.  The resolution is a term which means how many pixels a digital picture is made up.  If you have ever printed a picture out and it looks like there are squares on the page the resolution needs to be higher or the picture made smaller for this not to happen.

7) After taking your photographs and before printing out a photograph you can select the highest resolution for your image. On your computer, if you right click on your mouse and select properties this can determine the resolution.  If you choose this to be between 2,400- 4,800 dpi.(dots per inch)

8) Check out programs like Photoshop or programs on your computer that can fix problems like red eye or you can also improve the sharpness of your photos.   In some software programs you even help you delete blemishes, stray hairs or even delete distracting backgrounds.

I hope these suggestions are helpful and improve the quality of your printed photographs.

Inkjet cartridges used in the printers are basically used to spread the ink on the paper in a particular pattern that corresponds to a design. These may be used for black and white printing or colored printing to fulfill the requirement as needed.
Pricing of the cartridges:
The cartridges used in the printers are expensive. They may exceed your pocket budget if you opt for original ink.

So it is advised to avoid Ink cartridges refill and stop looking for Cheapest inkjet cartridges. Problems like color bleed, curling and streaking are observed when you do Ink cartridges compare between the two cases. For refills new techniques like the CIS have emerged where you need not refill the cartridge again and again, instead you have to refill the bottles which are connected to the cartridges via the tube. It is a very easy method for refilling the cartridges used in the printer. On the other hand a huge increase in the use of the cartridges is raising a problem that is a matter of concern for the environment. They emit Green House Gases.
