Those of you who have printers have home would know that it costs a tidy sum to buy the ink. However I have read about a printer that does away with the ink, toner and paper. Huh? What type of printer is that?
This is something from Japan called the PrePeat Printer. The PrePeat adopts a thermal head to print on specially-made plastic sheets. These plastic sheets are not only water-proof, but could be easily erased. One just feeds the sheets through the printer again, and a different temperature will erase everything or just write over it. The sheets will be reusable again. Using this printer will greatly reduce running cost. Hmm...this also means that it is eco friendly since no paper is used.
Got you interested? Then watch the video below.
