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.

  • Cool. People can commit one day, heat the paper the next day and they never said that. I think I'll stick with REAL paper and ink...

  • or we could use a fucking whiteboard...

  • so this is what the world is coming to...ironing paper...

  • @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.

  • You probably thought the world was gonna end in 2000 with the Y2K virus too huh?

  • Now that's what I call going green! ;D
