Little printer for your morning newspaper

Darpan News Desk IANS, 27 Jul, 2014 06:35 AM
    Cannot wait for the vendor to deliver the morning newspaper at your doorstep and do not want to switch on the laptop either? A tiny web-connected printer can now deliver news at a preset time of your choice.
     
    Developed by a London-based company Berg, the Little Printer is a cloud-connected, adorable little device with a personality, unlike conventional printers.
     
    From a personalised feed of news, messages, and things to amuse you, everything is printed onto rolls of thermal paper, making internet more personalised.
     
    Whether it be messages from friends or your own letters, they can be sent directly to the machine.
     
    Little Printer can fetch things from your email accounts and other websites, printing whatever you feed it.
     
    The machine prints in a grainy, black-and-white resolution and can also print images.
     
    On the desk, it looks nothing like a printer, with its cartoon face and two orange 'legs' which support it. The little printer is available for $199 on the Little Printer website, wired.com reported.
