At the Gartner Symposium/ITxpo in Las Vegas, Steve Hoover, vice president with Xerox Research Center Webster, shows off a technology being developed in the company's labs that enables people to reuse a piece of paper. The paper contains a photochromic compound that makes ink disappear when hit by direct heat.

@shossni Well, it uses light to produce the image on the paper, so, yes, cartiges will be obsolete.

This will not make printer cartridges obsolete.. you still have to print every single time you erase the paper.
