HP gets touchy-feely with printers



PETALING JAYA: Hewlett-Packard has just launched a couple of new all-in-one (AIO) printers, both driven by a touch-sensitive interface.
The two printers, namely the Photosmart C4780 and C4680 both come with the TouchSmart frame which is a 1.45in colour display with a touch-sensitive border.
The TouchSmart frame has context-sensitive icons which only light up when relevant to the user, thus minimising confusion and clutter on the clean, piano black finish of the printer.
Both printers have a 4,800 x 1,200dpi print resolution, optical scanning resolution of up to 1,200dpi, paper-handling up to A4 in size and use four-colour inks.
The main difference between the C4780 and C4680 is that the former comes built-in with 802.11b/g WiFi for wireless printing.
The Photosmart C4680 will retail for RM369 while the C4780 goes for RM499 — TAN KIT HOONG
