With a growing number of of Apple computer system users now choosing Mac laptops the demand for MacBook mobile printer solutions is increasing by leaps and bounds. An evolving trend of technology, shrinking form-factors are giving way to ever more compact and lighter weight computer accessories like mobile printers and scanners.
Accessory manufacturers like HP and Canon lead the market in travel printers for MacBook and PC operating systems. Both weighing under 5 pounds they're reasonable to tote around with your MacBook or razor thin MacBook Air laptop. For some business users in particular, where documents simply HAVE TO be scanned or printed on business trips, there are solutions to fit the bill for both OSX mobile printing and scanning needs.
You'll readily find a fair number of USB port-powered portable scanners for Mac that address the need for receipt and invoice scanning and document management on the road. When accompanied by OCR software like Abbyy FineReader text reader software for OSX, rapid scan and convert to text files and Adobe PDF is possible. And those can be saved to disk, emailed or printed to an Mac laptop printer when needed.
It is a shame that peripheral manufacturers haven't come up with a portable Mac compatible laptop scanner and printer All-In-One combination device to really give the best of both worlds in portable print and scan technology to traveling users. Currently, many desktop multifunction printers and fax systems already incorporate a scan head right into the printhead and paper feed roll assembly. Perhaps we just need the growing demands of an increasingly mobile generation of Mac users keen on travel computing to warrant such all-in-one portable print and scan devices.
