    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Kodak LED printerAn LED printer is a type of computer printer. LED technology uses a light-emitting diode array as a light source in the printhead. The LED bar pulse-flashes across the entire page width and creates the image on the print drum or belt as it moves past.

    LEDs are more efficient and reliable than conventional laser printers, since they have fewer moving parts. Depending on design, LED printers can have faster rates of print than some laser-based designs, and are generally cheaper to manufacture. Laser systems rely on elaborate combinations of rotating mirrors and lenses that must remain in alignment throughout their use. The laser scans from one end of a line to another, then starts on the next line. Unlike laser printers, an LED printhead has no moving parts.

    LED printing was invented by Casio.[1]

    It's a big beast of a machine so you better have space for it. You can connect it directly to a computer via USB, or network it either wired or wireless. I connected with a USB cable (not included but it's a standard USB printer cable and I had one around) and installation was very easy. I quickly had this set as the default printer and then shared it on my network. Printing was fast and the print quality is impressive. In particular, the lines on black letters were noticeably crisp and sharp.
