Abstract
An imaging device includes an input for supplying an erasable medium to the imaging device, the erasable medium comprising at least one of an imaged and a non-imaged erasable medium. The imaging device further includes an erase subsystem comprising active and inactive states, the erase subsystem erasing an imaged erasable medium in an active state, a cooling subsystem for selectively cooling an erased medium, and a write subsystem for imaging a received medium. The device further includes a user interface for configuring the imaging device and a sensor for detecting the type of input medium.
