Xyron recently released details of their new Design Runner hand held printer which kind of reminds me of the old style handheld scanners. Here’s a snip from their press release:

Using Lexmark print technology, this cordless, portable printer fits in the palm of a hand, giving consumers the ability to print directly on a variety of materials. With just the touch of a button it is now easier than ever before to print custom designs on fabric, wood, polymer clay, wallpaper and other surfaces. Consumers no longer need to purchase special printer adapters for odd-sized papers or use multi-step heat-based image transfer processes. The Xyron Design Runner also features a LCD display with a built-in guidance system for easy and accurate design selection and alignment.

The Xyron Design Runner will begin shipping in December 2005 with a suggested retail price of $139.99. This pricing includes the hand-held printer, a protective docking station, a complete 40-design sample Design Disc, one acid-free black inkjet cartridge, and two 9-volt batteries.
