Canon’s $280,000 printer is more printer than you need
Most
printers that people buy these days are cheap little things that cost
less than the ink that you need to buy to get them to work. I mean, who
prints stuff these days? Besides the occasional article or tickets,
printing is fast becoming something that almost nobody needs to do. But
what if you really need to print stuff, and you’re super serious about
it?Well, you can always get a Canon ImagePRESS C7000VP. This is the
granddaddy of all printers, costing a whopping $280,000 and requiring
33 feet of wall space. Yes, 33 feet. It can print 70 pages per minute
at 1200dpi, which is about as many pages as I print in a year. But hey,
if you are rich, have 33 feet of wall space you aren’t using, and want
to spend a few million on ink every year, this is the printer for you.
