One of the first computers, known as UNIVAC (which was roughly the same size as a garage)
Needed a printer to display its results and in 1954, the first printer known as UNIPRINTER was created to work in tandem with the UNIVAC machine. It basically resembled a large typewriter with a Tape drive attached to it. It could Print over six-hundred lines per minute, at one-hundred and thirty characters per line. As this happened, research into Xerography continued, where Xerox was very busy in the 1970’s developing the very first laser printers (yes, these came before bubble jets).
It was not until 1976 when the Xerox 9700 would be developed and it was the world’s fastest laser printer and still the fastest laser printer to this day as it prints an astounding 120 pages per minute. Of course, the size and price have drastically shrunk, but the radical technology remains the same. Printers will continue to evolve and stores such as Minuteman Press will be there to remain on the forefront of technology. So for all services relating to full colour printers in Secunda you can rely on Minuteman Press.
