John: There is presently a revolution in flat screen display and printing. In the printing world a massive breakthru has
ben made in the form of E-paper.

Electronic paper is a Silicon rubber polymer sheet containing laid out rows and Columns of small plastic ferrules containing black and white pigments. The ferrules are laid out in a matrix form representing pixels. When you pass a Electromagnetic wave the ferrules can be polarized.

It is likely that the info stream (10p bits)can be downloaded to a wand surface and retransmitted to the paper.
A whole new set of standards and Eqpts will be involved.

XRX and E-INK are the front runners. However E_INK has a big head start and has linked with LU and perhaps MOT.

The FAX and Copier are defintely on the way out. They will be replaced by E-Paper and E-Newsprint & Storage Wands.

A beginning has just been made.
