And it's fast enough to share with the entire office. Instead of inkwells or toner cartridges, the solid-ink Phaser uses four waxy color sticks that look like crayons for clumsy children. The printer heats the sticks to form ink droplets and sprays them onto a print drum. As paper rolls across the drum, the ink bonds with the paper's fibers. Scratching the color with a paper clip or fingernail, however, leaves a scar.
Text also has a smudgy, embossed appearance.
Solid-ink color can't rival a color laser's image quality, but if you're looking for a cool alternative to the norm, put the Phaser 840 Plus on your shortlist.
