Next year will mark the 50th birthday of the laser, one of the most productive and widely used mega-inventions of the last century. Scientists hope that 2010 also will see the launch of laser technology's greatest challenge: creating an inexhaustible supply of clean, carbon-free energy. http://www.physorg.com/news180125332.html Technology Tue, 15 Dec 2009 18:50:47 EST news180125332 (PhysOrg.com) -- Dell today announced three new commercial workgroup printers to help businesses of all sizes increase productivity and lower their total cost of printing. http://www.physorg.com/news177187372.html Electronics Thu, 12 Nov 2009 03:20:01 EST news177187372 (PhysOrg.com) -- Despite ongoing efforts to save the trees, many offices print high volumes of paper documents on a daily basis. Although many companies encourage paper recycling, both disposing of and recycling paper have negative environmental impacts. What if there was a way to reuse printed paper by removing the ink and quickly transforming it back into clean, white paper? http://www.physorg.com/news175847766.html Chemistry Tue, 27 Oct 2009 09:40:01 EST news175847766 (PhysOrg.com) -- With recent advances in biochemistry, researchers can control the circuitry in a developing cell, thereby influencing cells to develop into specific phenotypes. Taking a step forward in this area, researchers have recently demonstrated a new technique to control gene expression in two dimensions over time, which has not previously been demonstrated. And they have done so using a slightly modified $100 inkjet printer. http://www.physorg.com/news173950754.html Chemistry Mon, 05 Oct 2009 10:10:01 EST news173950754 A team of engineers and artists working at the University of Washington's Solheim Rapid Manufacturing Laboratory has developed a way to create glass objects using a conventional 3-D printer. The technique allows a new material to be used in such devices. http://www.physorg.com/news173022660.html Technology Thu, 24 Sep 2009 14:51:30 EST news173022660 Researchers from Northwestern University and Boise State University have figured out how to produce a less expensive shape-shifting "memory" foam, which could lead to more widespread applications of the material, such as in surgical positioning tools and valve mechanisms. http://www.physorg.com/news173002757.html Chemistry Thu, 24 Sep 2009 09:19:54 EST news173002757 Toys don't usually inspire high-tech innovation, but Michelle Khine's childhood favorite did just that. http://www.physorg.com/news171723718.html Technology Wed, 09 Sep 2009 14:40:01 EST news171723718 (AP) -- Hewlett-Packard Co.'s 19 percent drop in quarterly profit shows that the company still relies heavily on printer ink and the troubled personal computer market, despite the aggressive transformation it's undertaking to branch out and encroach more on rival IBM Corp.'s turf. http://www.physorg.com/news169835835.html Technology Tue, 18 Aug 2009 18:10:04 EST news169835835 Hewlett Packard unveiled a printer on Monday with a built-in Web connection that allows printing directly from the Internet without a personal computer. http://www.physorg.com/news164915970.html Electronics Mon, 22 Jun 2009 19:00:10 EST news164915970 (AP) -- Xerox Corp. said Thursday that Chief Executive Anne Mulcahy will retire July 1, to be succeeded by Ursula Burns, the printer and copier maker's president. http://www.physorg.com/news162128717.html Technology Thu, 21 May 2009 12:45:39 EST news162128717 (AP) -- Hewlett-Packard Co.'s quarterly profit dropped 17 percent on lighter sales of personal computers and printer ink, two of its biggest sellers and a sign that the woes in consumer technology spending dragged on beyond the miserable holiday season. http://www.physorg.com/news161970633.html Technology Tue, 19 May 2009 16:50:56 EST news161970633 (AP) -- The economics of color printing in big offices are simple: A page of black and white costs about 2 cents per page, while color runs about 8 cents. http://www.physorg.com/news160893735.html Electronics Thu, 07 May 2009 05:42:42 EST news160893735 (AP) -- Every time you print out a page on a laser printer you're using toner made from petroleum-based products. Now there's a greener choice that shows promise: a toner product derived from soybean oil. http://www.physorg.com/news159623044.html Technology Wed, 22 Apr 2009 12:44:37 EST news159623044 The Epson Artisan 800 5-in-1 printer (copy, fax, printing, scanning and Wi-Fi) is so good you almost wish it were a 50-in-1. http://www.physorg.com/news158434974.html Electronics Wed, 08 Apr 2009 18:43:26 EST news158434974
