Black White Reverse Copier

 A copier with white toner/ink that prints on black paper
  (+1)
(+1) 		  [vote for,

The reverse of the regular office copy machine (or an optional function, just change the toner cartridge and the paper and off you go...). Creates copies including half-tones by using white ink/toner on black copy paper. The white would also work well on dark blue, red, dark green, and other darker copy paper.

A nice change of pace for those of us that make too many copies weekly and are getting bored.

       Seems like you'd use up a lot of toner.

       Sounds a lot like those architectural drawing copiers (although they print white on blue, not black, and I don't think they're using toner technology).

       gotcha'. OK. To clarify...where we now have black, we'd have white (applies to both paper and toner). I'm pretty sure the halftones created by black on white could also be created by white on black...

       o, a device like that would go over well in companies like Enron.

       [o] Are you perchance the child of [po] and [half]? Just seems logical.   

       [po] I can hear you fine. In fact, please don't type so loud.   

       Seems like color printers could use white (+).

       I believe they are called plotters.

       No, [js], they are called "blueprint duplicators".
