Post-It Printers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Dongyeon Kim Brings the Post-It Note into the Digital Age

— March 19, 2011 — Tech
The Post-it Printer takes the incredibly easy task of writing a Post-It Note and somehow makes it easier by letting you do it electronically. The Post-It Printer works kind of like a regular printer in that you can write notes and lists on your computer and then send them to the Post-It Printer for printing. All bets are off after that point, my friends.

The Post-It Printer prints notes from top to bottom using a printing bar. The notes can be left on the paper or taken off and put around the house. The printer uses reusable paper, which means that notes left on the printer can be erased and reused an unlimited amount of times.
Trend Themes
1. Digital Sticky Notes - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop a more user-friendly, interactive, and sustainable digital sticky note system that can be integrated with multiple devices and platforms.
2. Reusable Printing Technology - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop a versatile, eco-friendly, and affordable printing technology that can print on reusable paper or similar sustainable materials that can be erased and used again.
3. Smart Office Supplies - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop an ecosystem of smart office supplies that can automate, streamline, and optimize workplace tasks and productivity through technology and design innovation.
Industry Implications
1. Office Supplies - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Office supplies manufacturers can embrace digital and sustainable trends to create innovative and eco-friendly products that cater to the new generation of tech-savvy and environmentally conscious consumers.
2. Printing Technology - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Printing technology companies can leverage reusable materials and digital integration to create new printing systems that reduce waste, costs, and environmental impact.
3. Smart Home and Office Devices - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Smart home and office device makers can expand their product lines to include smart and interactive office supplies that complement their existing ecosystem and enhance user experience and productivity.
