Lexmark has unveiled their new Genesis, the first all-in-one upright printer. The new Genesis printer is fitted with a 4.3-inch capacitive color touchscreen display providing access to the printer’s controls and menus.
Rather than a traditional scanner, the Lexmark Genesis has a 10-megapixel camera and uses a FlashScan system, which it utilizes with a fish-eye lens to produce images. Within 0.750 milliseconds after you close its front-facing scan bay, the CMOS sensor generates a preview on the 4.3-inch color touchscreen, and 2.2 seconds after that, it’s scanned a full 4800 x 1200 image.
Advanced Scanning Capabilities
The scanner section of the all-in-one allows for multiple pictures to be scanned at once without the need for them to be separated. This feature is particularly useful for users who need to digitize multiple documents or photos quickly and efficiently. Additionally, the Genesis supports double-sided printing, which can save both time and paper, making it an eco-friendly option for offices and homes alike. The printer is also fitted with Wireless N connectivity, ensuring fast and reliable wireless printing from various devices.
SmartSolutions Apps Integration
As well as the standard all-in-one functions, the Genesis also includes Lexmark’s SmartSolutions apps. These apps extend the functionality of the printer by integrating with popular services and platforms. For instance, the Stamps.com app allows users to print postage directly from the printer, while the Evernote app enables easy scanning and uploading of documents to the cloud. Other apps include Box.net for file storage, TripIt for travel planning, and social media apps like Twitter and Facebook for direct printing of social media content.
The inclusion of these SmartSolutions apps makes the Lexmark Genesis a versatile tool for both personal and professional use. Whether you need to manage your travel plans, store important documents, or stay connected with social media, the Genesis has you covered.
The Lexmark Genesis will launch next year and retail for $399. This price point positions it competitively within the market, offering a range of advanced features that are typically found in more expensive models. With its innovative scanning technology, robust app integration, and sleek upright design, the Genesis is set to be a game-changer in the all-in-one printer market.
