PrintBrush for truly portable print jobs

John Chan | Nov 16, 2009

Printers meant to be portable are usually not very much so. The fact that you must be able to feed an A4 sheet means it needs to at least be as large as the paper width. Well, watch the embedded video and be impressed by the PrintBrush which lets you sweep repeatedly across a piece of paper to create a printout.

Aside from being really small, this device is apparently silent so you can use it during meetings. It weighs 250g and prints in monochrome. Connecting it to a computer can be achieved via USB, Bluetooth or infrared devices. PrintDreams, the London-based company responsible for the PrintBrush, expects the product to be available in early 2010 at US$199.

A typical issue for most tech administrators in offices is the hassle of having to install new drivers on individual computers when the firm purchases new machines. Samsung is looking to solve this problem by offering a universal protocol that works with not only the Korean chaebol's printers, but also machines by other manufacturers.

The Samsung Universal Print Driver was actually announced in May, but we got to know more about it today at a printer launch.

In conjunction with a conference in Europe this week, Xerox has announced a new ink technology for printing electronic circuitry on everything from clothes to roll-up computer displays.

Xerox's process uses ink containing silver metal that can be used to wire up processing circuitry. It works on surfaces such as plastic that earlier have shown an inconvenient tendency to melt under the high temperature of liquid silver; Xerox's process works with an ink compound with a much lower temperature, the company said.

Sony's new digital photo frame prints, has a 7-inch screen

Joshua Goldman | Oct 26, 2009

(Credit: Joshua Goldman/CNET)

Sony will be bringing its S-Frame DPP-F700 printer to the U.S. in January, the company announced Thursday. It's basically a dye-sub snapshot printer, but with a 7-inch LCD. The screen can be tilted up when the printer is in use and then folded flat against the printer so that when you remove the paper tray, you can stand the unit up horizontally or vertically.

Update: Consumers in Asia can expect the DPP-F700 earlier. It will be available come November with pricing announced closer to launch date.

I had a chance to play around with one and, well, it's a photo printer with a larger-than-usual LCD on top. The extra screen real estate is nice, though, especially when using the F700's editing options such as cropping and adjusting brightness, contrast, hue, and sharpness. And, of course, it's better than looking at just a photo printer.
