Solar powered printer to print without ink cartridges

And if you’ve been under the impression all along that tanning does good just for your skin, here’s a technological breakthrough that has left us smiling like a bunch of happy hyenas! Designed by Hosung Jung, Junsang Kim, Seungin Lee and Yonggu Do, this solar-powered printer uses the tanning process to print stuff on paper, instead of using the typical ink cartridges! Using heat energy from the sun itself, this little printer tans the paper, making it an eco-friendly way to printing and documenting.

So long as the sun shines bright this printer is anticipated to do its job with so much of a whimper, though sticking in paper made from recycling processes could add a deeper shade of green to this whole solar powered printing process!
