Abstract

A computer controlled plain paper printer and image production apparatus comprising a monochromatic, laser stimulated electrophotographic printer having an optionally coupled color ink jet printer is described. The paper medium path from the laser printer is gate controlled between a direct exit path from the laser printer and a color print path into and through the ink jet printer. Both print units produce at their respective capacities and deliver recorded text and images on a paper substrate delivered to one or more discharge trays.
