The Scroll Marked II – A Classic Read For Network Marketers

Way back in 1969, Gary Starkweather demonstrated using a laser beam with xerography to create what is generally accepted as the first laser printer. This demonstration was carried out at the research facility of Xerox at Webster, New York. Ten years later, IBM introduced the IBM 3800 that could print 20,000 lines per minute. The first commercially viable Laser was produced by Hewlett -Packard in 1984, the LaserJet that could print at 300 dpi resolution. It was priced at US$3,600. Interestingly, it had a Canon engine controlled by HP software.Apart from the printing job itself, laser printing, because of its precise quality of text print and high output, gave a boost to desktop publishing. Apple released its own version in 1985 for the Mackintosh followed by the Aldus Page Maker which heralded a new era for desktop publishing that has only progressed and diversified for the better with time. Subsequently, with the perfection of the laser technology where larger portions of paper are printed using a laser beam, the laser printer has today become an indispensable Computer peripheral.While most people have Inkjet Printers for home use, office work usually calls for a Laser. It may be useful to understand the business sense that goes into the purchase of lasers where there is a lot of work to be done, and fast. While Inkjets are great for printing graphics and on various different surfaces too (like cloth and canvas and several different paper qualities) and for taking personal text prints, whether for research work or for printing out the grocery list, they are, in fact, slow and expensive when compared to a Laser.It really depends upon the kind of work that you want to do. In an office environment, there is a greater need for speed and volume when it comes to the print output. Even though Lasers cost more initially, their print volume, in case of monochrome printers, is definitely higher than that of Inkjets, and the ink replacement is also cheaper. For some Inkjet printers, replacing the cartridges twice can actually equal the cost of the printer itself. Not so with lasers, which make them ultimately economical with large outputs. There is also the speed and quality: Lasers are faster, and produce a no smudge, super crisp text print. In most monochrome printers, the image print quality is at least acceptable.Colour Laser Printers are slowly replacing the monochrome for office use, but with several toners to replace, operating them is a process that takes some expertise, aside from the expense and possible misuse. Unless the laser becomes as good with photographs as it is with charts and diagrams, the transition may still take a while.

Used car warranties aren’t always the best deal, and neither are so-called “extended warranties” on electronics such as computers, but when it comes to copier warranties you should always get one. Read on to learn why you should purchase a refurbished copy machine with a warranty.If you are looking to purchase a new or used copier but are concerned about the quality of local service, a copier warranty is the only way to ensure peace of mind with your purchase. Although you should always ensure that your refurbished copier is coming from a good place (most come from short term rentals, off-lease contracts, sales demos and corporate downsizing) and is in good condition (most have been used for less than three months), a warranty will ensure that if anything happens to it, the labor and parts will be covered.So why even bother purchasing refurbished discount copiers if you’re so afraid about its condition you need a warranty? Copier machines are a lot like cars. As soon as they “leave the lot” they severely depreciate in value. But also just like cars, most times a used copy machine is just as good as a new one – in fact, it most likely as been rarely used at all.Because you can buy a refurbished copy machine at such discounted prices, you or your company will be able to afford a much better, top name brand copier than you might be able to buy otherwise.Buying a certified used copy machine is just plain a smart business decision. It will provide your company with the productivity it requires for many years down the road, but it won’t come with the inflated costs of a brand new copy machine.When looking for a refurbished copier, it’s important to find a reputable company to do business with. You want to only buy from a company with an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau, and of course, ensure that they provide some kind of warranty with your new copier. Most companies will automatically provide a limited warranty (such as covering the first 90 days), but the best choice is a company that offers an extended warranty. The warranty should cover parts and labor, as well as cover all major circuit boards, motors, and scanning units.Don’t pay full price for your office copy machine. Purchase a refurbished copier with a warranty and guarantee years of good service for up to 75% off MSRP.
