All-in-one printers which can scan, fax without ink cartridges?

[Franz47]

After realizing that without ink cartridges I cannot scan or fax with my
less that one year old HP Photosmart C410b I wonder whether there are
any all-in-one devices on the market which can scan (and fax) without
ink cartridges.

Actually, it is older than one thinks...

The facsimile machine as we know it is just an updated, digital,
version. During the Napoleanic wars the French used a new technology
called the Pantelegraph which used telegraph wires to transmit an analog
facsimile and was created by the Italian Giovanni Caselli.

Hi,

I wonder if you would be kind enough to explain the presence of
telegraph wires in Europe during the Napoleonic Wars, which are dated at
1803-1815. There was a primitive multiwire telegraph system in Germany
since 1832, and Samuel F.B. Morse invented the first single wire
telegraph system (plus Morse code) in 1837. That leaves a mystery as to
how there were telegraph wires before the electrical telegraph was invented.

I will appreciate your reply.

Regards,

Mort Linder

First lest me state I am NO HISTORY EXPERT so what I posted was from
vague memory of information.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pantelegraph

By 1856, he had made sufficient progress for Leopold II, Grand Duke of
Tuscany to take an interest in his work, and the following year he
travelled to Paris where he was assisted by the engineer Paul Gustave
Froment, to whom he had been recommended by Léon Foucault, to construct
the first Pantelegraph. In 1858, Caselli's improved version was
demonstrated by French physicist Alexandre-Edmond Becquerel at the
French Academy of Sciences in Paris.[1]

On 10 May 1860 Napoleon III visited Froment's workshop to observe a
demonstration of the device, and was so enthused by the device that he
secured access for Caselli to the telegraph lines he needed to further
his work, from Froment's workshops to the Paris Observatory. In November
1860 a telegraph line between Paris and Amiens was allotted to Caselli
which enabled a true long-distance experiment, which was a complete
success, with the signature of the composer Gioacchino Rossini as the
image sent and received, over a distance of 140 km (87 mi).[1]

Hi,

Thanks, but you gave me no answer. How were telegraph wires present in
Europe in the time frame 1803-1815, many years before the telegraph was
invented?

Thanks.

I gave you an answer but I did not explain it properly so you would
understand it.

In short the information comes from my memory and not being a history
expert I mistakenly connected the use by the latter Napolean III to the
earlier Napoleanic wars.

Thanks a lot for your nice explanation, which certainly makes a lot of
sense. I do appreciate it.

Th fax machine cannot transfer the scanned image to my PC, as far as I know

I just not so sure what you mean by the FAX Machine of/from the All-In-One
printer. As it's the Printer + Fax Machine + Copier + Scanner and it sure
can transfer the scanned image to either PAPER or PC (and MAC as well).
