I used to travel with a Canon PIXMA printer. Quite portable. Could carry a laptop and printer in a small backpack. The paper was heavy, though.

What were you printing that required a print to be carried with you?

Personally printing should be banned. The amount of paper waste we create disgraceful.

  • I worked for a Japanese company. Paper is a big deal, there.

    Also, I have long subscribed to Tufte's "supergraphic" methodology, when giving presentations.

    • In which way? Can you elaborate? What type of document would you need to print on the go? What for or for whom?

      About time they evolved to the next level then.

      My point still sticks. Paper waste is a large impact to climate change. We shouldn't be using paper anymore, why do we proceed to waste such as by printing out email's?
