TECHNICAL PROBLEMS
SLOWED DOWN THE SCHEDULE
Replacing the traditional belt with a wire would reduce
costs, but the wire could not perform adequately to
achieve the desired print density.
A standard polymer paten would be 70% to 80% the cost
of a proprietary rubber paten, but it would be slippery,
and might cause the paper to skew easily.
The keypad was designed to be separately built and then
assembled onto the machine, but its quality of being
detachable caused it to fail the usual HP drop test.
The small gap between the keypad and the body of the
printer made the machine vulnerable to electro-static
discharge.
