Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. Teaching Tip Figure 4B.5 on page 163 provides an excellent rendering of how the print head works. Be sure to refer to the image as you teach.
  2. Insider information Nearly all of the electronics for the printer is kept in the ink cartridge. Thus, when the cartridge is replaced the printing components of the printer are replaced. Refilling cartridges is OK, but should not be reused more than 2-3 times.
  3. Insider information The laser printer works on a similar process to a photocopier. The first photocopier as we know it today was invented in Astoria NY in 1938 by Chester Carlson and Otto Kornei.
