Jasper Morrison Photo Printer

Printers are the home office essential that need to be easily accessible yet are typically not the nicest thing to look at. Due to their size they also tend to be difficult to hide away, especially when it comes to multifunction printers. This Jasper Morrison designed printer for Olivetti shows us a nice alternative to the typical plastic ink box.

Printing, scanning and copying are all possible with this multifunction printer but our biggest question when it comes to buying an ink jet printer always is "How much are the replacement cartridges?"

I love Jasper, but I think the Samsung ML-1630 laser printer is much hotter. Not only because it's a laser (the only way to go), but because it's cleaner and more expensive looking (while keeping the price tag quite slim). The problem with office stuff is all that visual clutter that apple has worked hard to eliminate. This one has too many curves and crevasses. Check this out:

I agree that the Samsung is attractive, but how many of us are willing to give up color printing?

I just bought an Epson R280 yesterday which has pretty clean lines (actually almost a little too clean for my aesthetic... I'm not so into the black and chrome look, but whatever).

Obviously I can't comment on its durability, but it is one of the only printers around that can print onto CDs and DVDs (which is why I bought it), and it looks like a stretched out version of the printer above.

The Samsung looks really nice, too.

Just bought the Samsung. Didn't think there was anything like that out there for the price. Thanks for the heads-up.

That's a nice design, but there doesn't seem to be any way to buy it.

Well we have other options now, some printer don't actually need replacement cartridges while other simply recharge the cartridges in an effort for more eco-friendly options. I know for a fact that some lexmark printers have these features.
