It's some printer poetry, I think ;-)

Almost made me click on the link to try to make sense of it... but I
controlled myself ;-)

It's a printer that seemingly prints directly on flowers.

Actually, my curiosity finally got the better of me so I looked it over.
It is an inkjet printer, using the guts of a Lexmark, which indeed is
designed with software drivers and software elements, to print on roses.
of all things. It costs about $1000 for the whole package.

The process involves a special coating on the petal you want to print
on, and the ink takes about one hour to fully dry. Then it is
waterproof (they claim) for the life of the rose. It may also work with
other flowers, I suppose, or even other things.

It is a "unique" system and it's interesting to me, not so much because
it prints on roses, but it gives you some ideas about how inkjet
printing can be used in a lot of applications if you were to adapt the
printer

It IS interesting, pity they couldn't have got that over in the first
place though :O)
