And here for today is another random object.

Any guesses on this one? A manky wine gum? A plastic moulding? A stab vest for an action man?

It’s really a lump of cyan solid ink.

Sadly, teachers (and kids I guess) have a massive like affair with colour printing. "It must be colour" they weep! It’s better quality! (It isn’t) It engages the children better! (It doesn’t) It’s simpler for dyslexics to read! (It isn’t) They get higher marks! (They don’t). And the huge conundrum that people either don’t see or don’t care about is that it’s factually ten times more expensive to photograph out in colour. TEN TIMES! (Though in fairness, that’s comparing our most expensive colour printer (HP2600N) with our cheapest mono (HP2430N).

Anyhow, when something comes along that might offer excellent quality and half the running costs, whilst still using OEM consumables, we have to be interested.

The Xerox phaser series has been around for many years. Instead of toner it uses a solid ink, which comes in these compressed pellet blocks. The printer heats these up to a liquid and then most likely sprays them on the page. I don’t know exactly what the mechanism is, but I do know that it delivers at least laser quality at 30 pages per minute. And that’s off a five hundred quid printer.

After a small research we finally bought one to trial and the consequences after one day look promising. We’ll see how it goes in the longer term.

I might even come back with updates – who knows!
