If you were to take a printer and a toaster and breed them you would get a toaster printer. These folks did just that to reinvent the ordinary toaster. Imagine stacking all your sliced bread into the toaster printer and at the end of its cycle you have a stack of perfectly printed toast without the ink. No more of that two at a time business. Not only that, but the toaster printer is quite beautiful and would fit into any modern home nicely.
