Paper Maker

摘要

This 3-D printer stands out because it makes things in full color and uses standard office paper rather than costlier materials such as plastic. First a digital blueprint for an object-an architectural model or a mockup of a product, for example-is fed into the machine. Next it applies the color the object will need by running hundreds of sheets of paper through a typical 2-D printer filled with special ink that saturates each sheet.
