Concerned about print quality and the running costs of having a printer? Epson's newly-launched MaxEconomy (ME) series of printers aims to address these two issues consumers usually fret about.
With the Epson ME320 all-in-one, and the ME141 ink cartridges, printing a monochrome page would cost 5 cents, and if it's in colour, it'll be just 8.5 cents.
The ME320 has a four-ink cartridge system and retails for $148. Despite its affordable price tag, it's not short on features. Documents are printed at a resolution of 5760x1440 dpi. The all-in-one can churn out 28 pages per minute in monochrome and 15 pages per minute in colour. Scanning is done at resolutions of up to 600dpi. Copying is an efficient affair, too, as it can duplicate monochrome documents at speeds of up to 11 seconds per page or 38 seconds for a page in colour.
If your needs get more advanced, you can go up a notch and get a printer from the Epson ME Office Inkjet series (ME Office 960FWD, 900WD or 620F), which have features like WiFi, Ethernet connectivity, fax and built-in duplex printing. Prices range from $228 to $478.

ENERGY STAR® qualified, biodegradable supply cores and recyclable packaging make the new Datacard® SD260 card printer the industry’s first desktop printer with environmentally focused features, according to Datacard Group, the world leader in secure ID and card personalization systems.
The SD260 printer’s ENERGY STAR qualification makes it the first of its kind. The SD260 printer earned its ENERGY STAR qualification by requiring less energy than its predecessors and saving users money from reduced energy costs.
Key environmental features include: Bio-Tec Environmental EcoPure® chemical additive biodegradable supply cores that gradually break down in landfills, recyclable packaging to reduce waste and a soft-touch power-down button allowing users to increase energy efficiency. The SD260 printer helps support and sustain the environmental initiatives of Datacard printer users.
The SD260 printer also complies with Reduction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) and Waste Electrical Electronic Equipment (WEEE) directive requirements. RoHS compliance indicates that the SD260 printer upholds international regulations defined by the European Union, including manufacturing restrictions on hazardous chemicals and proper methods of recovery, treatment and recycling. The WEEE directive ensures responsible measures in setting collection, recycling and recovery methods.
“Customers can confidently choose the SD260 printer to meet all of their requirements, including those related to helping the environment,” said Kathleen Phillips, head of desktop personalization systems for Datacard Group. “The SD260 printer is the first in the industry to be created with the environment in mind.”
In addition, Datacard Group will donate a portion of the proceeds from every SD260 printer sold from now until the end of November, 2010 to the Rainforest Alliance. The Alliance works to conserve biodiversity and ensure sustainable livelihoods by transforming land-use practices, business practices and consumer behavior.
The new SD260 card printer will be on display in booth 1133, at the American Society for Industrial Security (ASIS) tradeshow, October 12-14 in Dallas, Texas.

printer problem could be of various types. There might be different hardware related issues as well as software issues as well. Sometimes there are printer driver installation issues such as if the driver is not installed properly then it can cause communication issue.
Well, the printer driver is one of the causes of communication issue related to software. The main reason being if the driver is not installed properly then the communication between the hardware and the computer doesn’t work.
Spooler issue is another major player. Spooler is something without which a printer would not function. There are various types of spooler errors too. How to fix printer spooler problem? Before discussing about that, let’s have a look at some of the common spooler errors.
• Spooler subsystem app has encountered a problem and needs to close
• Print Spooler Access Denied
• Print Spooler Access Code is Invalid
• Print Spooler Always Stopping
• Print Spooler Always Stop
• Print Spooler App Error
• Print Spooler Application Error
• Print Spooler Automatically Stop
Well all these spooler errors are fixable though. The basic spooler errors can be rectified by restarting the spooler usually. In case, if the spooler doesn’t restart then the command: sc config spooler = rpcss can be tried which usually fixes the issue with spooler not starting. Now the spooler can be restarted and change the startup type to Automatic. There are other ways to fix different spooler errors. Many a times, a few registry corrections can fix the issues too. You can also talk to a remote pc repair company for help.
Then there is something called print processor. The print processor tells the spooler to alter a job according to the document data type. It works together with the printer driver to move the spooled print jobs from the hard disk drive to the printer. The windows operating system comes with a few print processors by default namely RAW, WINPRINT, NTEMF1.0x, TEXT DATA TYPE etc. Moreover the printers also come with their own print processors. One can choose between the windows options or the Printer OEM options depending on their requirements.
Besides these there are other printer related errors and issues which also falls under printer problem.
Faded printing, ghost printing, incorrect cartridge settings, smeared printing etc also are different issue with a printer. All these can be fixed by changing settings in the printer software. By cleaning the cartridges and aligning them dos fix these issues. Of course certain times there are hardware issues on a cartridge or a toner. Some times the nozzles become defective. In such a case the cartridge or the toner needs to be replaced.
Then there are issues where printing is not proper from websites but the printer works fine to print documents. In such cases changing the encoding of the webpage might help. If the issue still persists, then changing the print processor may resolve the issue.
Last but not the least, there are OEM related errors in which contacting the printer manufacturer is the best solution.
