Kodak has some new all-in-one printers hitting the market in the form of the ESP 3250 and ESP 5250. Both models are equipped with Kodak’s Kodacolor technology, which lets you get away with using very cheap ink.

The two models are similar, but the ESP 3 has the added capability of a multi-function memory card reader and a 1.5″ LCD display for $130. The ESP 5250 will cost you $170 and comes with Wi-fi connectivity, the multi-function memory card reader and a smaller 2.4″ LCD display.

Rihac makes several Continuous Ink Supply Systems (CISS) for inkjet printers. This isn’t just another way to refill inkjet cartridges, it’s a high capacity ink supply system that does away with those expensive cartridges.

You can get systems that fit all the mid to high end printers made by all the big guys like Epson, HP, Canon and Brother. Rihac claims that their ink is made by the same companies that manufacture ink for the printer companies so the quality is identical to what you are already using.

Hot on the heels of their new Workforce printers, Epson has announced the upcoming release of the Artisan 710 and 810 all-in-one printers. Each feature an integrated Wi-Fi connection and Ethernet ports and both can print on both sides of a page. Compatible devices can be charged using the printers’ USB port. You can also print images wirelessly straight from your iPhone.

The Artisan 810 sports a color fax with an automatic document feeder and a 7.8-inch touch screen along with a 3.5-inch color LCD. The 710 uses a touch button control panel with a 2.5-inch LCD.

Canon has a new printer in their Selphy line. The Selphy ES40. The most interesting aspect of this Selphy is that it comes with a voice-guidance system, which is new territory in the world of printers. Some other features include a 3.5″ LCD display and a scroll wheel to navigate through all of the menus.

The Selphy ES40 printer will retail for $149.99 when released. The Selphy ES40 is great for creative types since it gives you more personalization options for your photos, with things like new frames and clip art under the Creative Print function.

Epson has a new printer in their Stylus Photo line. The PX650 all-in-one. This printer is aimed at digital photographers and creative types and doesn’t even require a PC to use. It sports a convenient 2.5-inch LCD screen, making it easy to edit crop etc right on the printer.

Some other features include PictBridge support, a memory card slot, copying and scanning at 1,200DPI resolution. The PX650 uses Claria Photographic Ink which Epson claims will give you prints that last 200 years. You can get started right out of the box as Epson has even included a pack of photo paper.

Today Canon introduced three new photo printers with some new features that you’ll appreciate. First up is the PIXMA MP560, which is an all-in-one inkjet with duplex printing, photo correction and Wi-Fi. It also features a USB port for printing directly from external storage. It’s capable of printing 4″ x 6″ prints in grayscale at a rate of 9.2 images a minute and 6 images per minute in color. Price should be $150.

Next up is the MP490, which lacks some of the above features like USB printing, duplex and Wi-Fi. It also has a slower printing rate and a 1.8-inch LCD screen. This one will run you $100.

Printers are fairly boring, but HP is looking to shake things up with the “world’s first web-connected printer.” The Photosmart Premium features a 4.33-inch front panel dubbed the Touchsmart Web, a touchscreen interface with several bundled, online apps to accommodate all of your paper-friendly tasks.

It even has a full-on HD Apps Studio just in case downloading new apps on your printer really takes off. The API’s being made open for the entire realm of developers, but it remains to be seen if the interest is there. It will cost you $399.

Xerox’s new ColorQube printer promises to revolutionize color-printing using a wax ink. The ink can reduce the cost per page by as much as 62%. This new ink doesn’t sacrifice any printer functions either. Like other multi-function printers, the ColorQube can print, copy, scan and fax and be networked by several people.

So how does it work? The ink is melted and sprayed onto a spinning drum which deposits it on the page. Don’t get too excited. The machine costs $20,000. But as the technology progresses it will get cheaper over time. And even at that price huge companies could see a long term savings in cost.

We reported on a nail printer previously, of the Barbie variety. Apparently this is the new hot thing. I wouldn’t know myself since I’m not a girl, goth or anyone else who paints their nails. But hey why not, we have printers for everything else.

Nilo is apparently all about “Nail Fashion”. And having taken years to perfect their nail printing devices, they are now ready to sell them to you so you can start your own business etc. The printers will run you from $2,999.00 for the standard all the way up to $3,544.00 for their deluxe printing kit.

It doesn’t matter if you use your printer a little or a lot, we all still hate paying ridiculous prices for ink. But what if you could use old coffee grounds instead? That would beat the price of ink. It may sound crazy, but one day, who knows? Starbucks could resell their grounds for you to take home and put in your printer.(At a high price just like their coffee I’m sure.)

It’s a just a dreamy concept right now, but with the RITI coffee printer, you could drink your coffee and print with it too. The spent grounds would be poured into a cartridge and the printing mechanism would be moved back and forth by hand to create the image. I like the idea, but could do without the manual labor part. On the plus side, your resume might be judged by the aromatic quality of your spent coffee.

Samsung introduced today for those in small and home offices a new mono-laser multi-functional printer. It is called the SCX-4826FN and it prices around $430.

The Samsung SCX-4826FN is a four-in-one product which offers print, copy, scan and fax features in a compact footprint. It is designed with a LED display that offers quick access to a variety of functions. Samsung says it is available now.

Sorry guys. This one’s for the girls. The Barbie Digital Nail Printer is part of Mattel’s new line of products called “beautronics”. This Nail Printer is designed to print images directly onto your fingernails using thermal inkjet technology and specially-formulated cosmetic grade ink.

Just insert your finger into the machine and a digital camera inside transmits an image of your fingernail to the computer. With the included Barbie software you can select from 1000’s of image designs and see a preview of the image you choose superimposed on your nail so you see exactly what it would look like on your nail.

This thing may look like an X-Man accessory or strange sci-fi gun that straps on your arm and sucks your precious lifeforce with every round it fires, but no, as cool as that would be, it’s just something UPS is using so they can get all label-free. It’s HP’s Handheld sp400 All-in-One, which scans barcodes and prints sorting info directly onto boxes with quick-drying ink. No paper labels are required at all. UPS has been testing it out at a shipping center in Orlando, where they reportedly used it on 40,000 boxes with not a single error. Of course there was that one guy they pants in order to tattoo his butt cheeks, but that doesn’t count.

This device alone will make the company much greener. It will replace several larger, less green pieces of equipment like a giant thermal printer, PC, monitor and scanner. According to UPS the company will save 92,456 hours, 1,338 tons of paper and 3,807 tons of carbon emissions a year. That’s pretty big.

Have you ever wished you had a real-life replicator that can actually create 3D objects from nothing? Like the Star Trek Replicator? It’s here. Actually 3D printers have been around for awhile, but are just now getting small enough to fit onto your desk. The Objet Alaris 30 is a compact desktop 3D printer that uses a peripheral with PolyJet Photopolymer Jetting. This helps it produce 600 x 600 dpi objects up to 11.5 x 7.7 x 5.9 inches in size.

That’s an improvement over the 5-inch cube that they did last year. The printer can manufacture small moving elements as thin as 0.0011 inches. According to Objet, the Alaris 30 Desktop 3D Printer will give you 36 hours of unattended printing from your 3D CAD files. No word on pricing or availability.

Kodak’s got itself a couple of new wireless all-in-one inkjet printers which reportedly offer the “lowest ink replacement cost in the industry.” These printers are the ESP 7 and ESP 9, priced around $200 and $300, respectively.

Kodak says these new printers will save you, the consumer, around $110 a year on ink, compared to “other leading consumer inkjet printers on the market.” This is done by combining “the latest in printing technology with affordable, premium-quality inks.” The ESP 7 and 9, for example, offer an intelligent paper tray system which automatically adjusts settings based on 4×6 or 5×7 sizes and estimates paper amounts on both trays.
