In our everyday life, there are things that some people could never understand, the others could use them from time to time in some special conditions and the still others are obsessed with them and are always waiting for the upgrades. And what I mean now is special devices for printing labels. Why do we need them when there are still pens, plain paper and scissors? The answer is obvious only for a labeling fans and may become obvious for you when you find out a little more about these gadgets.

No doubt, children are usually more easygoing and adaptable than adults, and being born without a hand, of course, leaves its imprint and causes moral pain, but accepts easier by children than an adult being injured at a mature age. Being different from the others is a great challenge to any person especially of a young age. Children can taunt and mock their differently-abled schoolmates, but from now on the situation will be totally different as the scientists from the Huston University (belonging to a local chapter of eNABLE Community Foundation) provide children with 3D printed upper-limb prosthetics.
Recently, a third-grader from Huston area Rafael Esquivel has got his new 3D-printed hand. He says that his classmates from Lakeland Elementary in Humble now envy him and want to cut their arms off to get a 3D-printed one instead. The prosthetic is made of plastic and allows to hold objects of different sizes and even do the monkey bars. It takes about 25 hours to produce a hand like that and costs about $35. And even with this, the UH eNABLE group is said to never charge for the prosthetics it makes. The group has already helped different children to gain more normal life and is ready to help the others.
This time, Dell has prepared two new color printers from the Color Smart line and a new OpenManage Printer Essential solution to better match the needs of medium- and large-sized businesses. Its reliable, easy-to-manage and secure line of printers is expanded by the S3840cdn and S3845cdn models specially designed to work with Dell’s new OMPE technology providing quick setup and efficient fleet monitoring. In other words, the IT-crew now gets an advanced tool for easier printer fleet controlling (to limit color and B/W printing, to track the number of pages printed/copied/faxed, to monitor data usage, and to enable guest printing via a wireless adapter).

3D printers are rapidly penetrating in almost every niche of everyday life and are globally praised for all the good things that can be done with their help: from educational prototypes and designer furniture items to new medical investigations on printing human inward parts of the body, tooth implants and special receipt medical pills. But, as always in human history, one technology can be used for good and for bad. According to the police, there have been withdrawn some 3D printed guns of the “Uzi”-style very close to factory quality, a 3D printer able to produce fully automatic machine guns and other tools during the raid to uncover homemade weapons.

Recently this month, Xerox has launched two new color printer models for small office environments—Xerox Phaser 6510 and Xerox WorkCentre 6515 (MFP)—both continuing the company’s famous printer lineups. The characteristic features of the models are 1) their multiple mobile connectivity, 2) new formula of the toner and 3) enterprise-level features available in the low-end segment machines.
