I can remember feeling like a million dollars when using a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pricecheck.co.za\/categories\/f\/105\/Printers\/f\/121\/Dot+matrix\/0\/tp.weekly\/DESC\/\" target=\"_blank\">dot matrix printer<\/a> in the early 90\u2019s. At the time it was the only printing solution that was available. Imagine the joy of watching a ribbon being forced against the continuous stream of paper. It sounds awful but at the time it felt like being part of a secret research project which would provide a printer to James Bond.<\/p>\n<p>Fast forward 10 years and there are many more technologies that are used to print characters on a piece of paper. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pricecheck.co.za\/categories\/f\/105\/Printers\/f\/121\/Laser\/0\/tp.weekly\/DESC\/\" target=\"_blank\">Laser printing<\/a>, dye sublimation printing and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pricecheck.co.za\/categories\/f\/105\/Printers\/f\/121\/Inkjet\/0\/tp.weekly\/DESC\/\" target=\"_blank\">inkjet printers<\/a> are a few of the technologies available to the public. Commercial printing solutions are also available to ensure low printing costs for corporates as printing is quite an expenditure.<\/p>\n<p>Enter <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pricecheck.co.za\/brands\/Lexmark\/\" target=\"_blank\">Lexmark <\/a>and their complete redesign of the all-in-one printer. They have adapted it and made it into a \u201cnow-in-one&#8221; printer that mounts the scanner up at a near-vertical angle on top of the print engine. The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pricecheck.co.za\/offers\/19695748\/Lexmark+Genesis+S815\/\" target=\"_blank\">Lexmark Genesis s815<\/a> is a definite change to the normal printer in looks and how it operates.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.pricecheck.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/Lexmark-Genesis-S815-scanning.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1100\" title=\"Lexmark Genesis S815 scanning\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.pricecheck.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/Lexmark-Genesis-S815-scanning-300x269.jpg\" border=\"none\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"269\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The first thing that will catch your attention is that Lexmark have ditched the traditional look of a all in one printer and have designed something that can be seen as something of a Transformer. The styling is refreshing and new which will definitely make the printer popular with early adopters.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Genesis S815 also functions as a digital photo frame featuring the user&#8217;s own images, allowing them to personalise the workplace. In combination with its stylish design this makes it a real eye-catcher in the office so that it can take pride of place on the desktop.<\/p>\n<p>Innovative technologies leading the market<br \/>\nThe new AIO-printer includes Lexmark&#8217;s new Flash Scan technology which means users can scan documents to their PC in just three seconds . Flash Scan also offers instant preview so users can immediately see what they are getting before they scan, copy or fax.<\/p>\n<p>Advanced technology ensures faster, greener printing<br \/>\nGenesis S815 4-in-1 comes equipped with Wi-Fi-n technology eliminating the need for multiple cables to link with IT equipment, ensuring a neater workplace. This wireless technology also offers three times the network coverage and faster data transfer speeds than Wi-Fi-g technology enabling faster printing and making it easy and quick to access the internet.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I think there is one problem with the Lexmark Genesis S815. I believe that the pricing is a tad more than a normal all in one printer which may turn away prospective owners from purchasing it. I wonder if this design which can be seen as revolutionary will become the norm. If you don\u2019t want an average all in one printer and be seen a tech savvy then <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pricecheck.co.za\/offers\/19695748\/Lexmark+Genesis+S815\/\" target=\"_blank\">the Lexmark Genesis S815<\/a> is ideal.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.pricecheck.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/Lexmark-Genesis-S815.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1099\" title=\"Lexmark Genesis S815\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.pricecheck.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/Lexmark-Genesis-S815-272x300.png\" border=\"none\" alt=\"\" width=\"272\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Printing has seen a lot of research and development in the last 10 years.
