All in the title.



Has it been done?


If not, feel free to take the idea.

I started to do one back in high school in an all in one in the days of mini itx boards being in the very very elite computer hacker price range. It was a pain in the ass and the guy I was working on it with decided to piss his parents off and I have no idea where my computer or the printer is to this day.

no, i have never seen this done before.... but i have an old printer lying around and this could be epic... especialy if you wired the printers power buttons to be the on switch, and left the glass on the scanner that is on top so you could leave it open and look down into it.

Airflow would be tricky though.

Don't get a high-end machine.

Or make vents.




Depending on the printer, have the paper compartments be the vents.








Make it a touchscreen :P
