Talk:Inkjet printer
From Academic Kids
This entire article deals with on-demand inkjet printers only. We need to include content on the continuous inkjet printers like Iris printers, the ones used to produce the giclées.

Usage in ATMs and Cash Registers
I'm not a huge contributer to Wikipedia so I didn't want to make this edit myself. However, in the "General" heading under this article, it is stated that Inkjet printers find common usage in ATMs and Cash Registers. On the contrary, these devices do not use inkjet printers, but a technology that incorporates thermal paper. The print head is similar to a daisy wheel setup which is heated and "burns" the information onto special paper. You can verify this fact by comparing the feel of most receipts you get, they are slightly smoother and more plastic. You can then hold a heat source (such as a lighter flame) underneath them and they will quickly turn black in response.
