Mmmm, printers. Many may ask, “How exciting can a printer be? As long as it prints well, inks cheap, and it lasts awhile, what else is there?” They haven’t seen the new line of printers from Konica Minolta.

The new Magicolor 1600 series of color laser printers from Konica Minolta promises some great features for both the high-quality print market as well as the home office. With 4 new printers in the series there is something for everyone. Don’t expect flashy with tons of bells and whistles, though. These printers are serious about printing, but feel no need to be other office products as well.

These days, it’s important that companies try to create more eco-friendly/green products to help out the environment. Every little bit helps. The two new printers from Brother do just that. While they do not have a lot of green features, they will automatically print on both sides of the paper using an automatic duplex feature.

The first printer, the HL-4040CDN replaces the HL-4040CN. They have pretty much the same features such like 21ppm printing speeds for black and color ink and prints in maximum quality – 2400x600dpi. The only new feature in this printer is the aforementioned automatic duplex feature. Even though it doesn’t seem like duplex printing will do a lot, but it will save a lot of paper if you print out a lot of documents. Continued after the break.

Once again your printer is out of ink way before you think there is any way it should be. Yet somehow, BOOM. It just refuses to print another page until you replace the cartridge. Well, when Farhad Manjoo’s Brother printer suddenly stopped printing; he started to wonder if his printer wasn’t simply lying to him that it was out of toner just so he would buy more before he actually even needed it. His prints hadn’t been fading at all; his printer just suddenly simply refused to keep going without a new cartridge.

Manjoo decided to look to the ‘Net for a way around this. And he indeed found some answers. He learned that by covering up the sides of his toner cartridge with a piece of electrical tape he could “trick” his printer into thinking it was full. He says the printer was been chugging along just fine ever since…eight months and hundreds of pages down the road…printing out perfect pages.

HP has announced the availability of a three new printers in their Photosmart series.

The first printer they announced, the A630, which comes with a record setting touch LCD screen, one that measures out at 4.8-inches. In addition, you have the option of making up to 300 edits to the picture, before printing it out. All this editing is done on the printer itself, no need for editing on the computer. In case you don’t need all these features, you can opt to get the simpler and more basic version, the A530. The A530 comes with a smaller screen, but it also is the most affordable printer that still can print 5 x 7 photos.
