Printer Inspiration
Persona
A designer that has started working from home. Since she's been home she has been struggling to scan her 11x17 designs to send to her colleagues. With this new printer Olivia can leave her stress behind and just focus on her work.

Ideation
Decided on a base design. Working on the refined details.
Foam Prototyping
When creating the design out of foam, I discovered that it was too tall; the top couldn't be seen when placed on a desk. To solve this the printer was shortened and slightly elongated.
