How Capturx Printing Works

Capturx turns ordinary paper into extensions of your computer desktop applications through a special dot pattern which Capturx adds to print outs to enable them to be read by a digital pen. The dot pattern is unique for each print and appears as a light background on print outs. The digital pen has a sensor which reads the dot pattern as it writes, tracking both the handwriting and its location on that unique sheet.

Capturx offers a range of printing options, enabling customers to:
     • Print their own notebooks, forms, maps, and PDF files on plain paper using office
        printers such as the ones listed below
     • Purchase pre-printed notebooks directly from Adapx for use with Capturx for OneNote
     • Have single and multi-part forms pre-printed in high-volume print shops

Using Office Printers
We recommend that Capturx-enabled print outs be made with 4-color laser printers that support postscript and have at least 256MB of memory.

We have tested a broad range of printers which work with Capturx from such leaders such as HP, Okidata, Oce, Ricoh and Canon. Below is a sample list of printers that are compatible with Capturx. In some cases, manufacturers have added software or adapted the printers in ways that make them incompatible with Capturx. We have included a list of those exceptions below.

Sample Plotter List**

* Printer models that include asterisk require special settings. If you are having trouble with a color printer, then we may be able to suggest a few minor setting adjustments to your printer to get it working. (We also suggest confirming sufficient memory and postscript support.)  Please contact our sales or support teams for assistance [email protected].  

**Plotters require matte and pigment-based inks as a minimum requirement.
Plotters using dye-based inks or photo inks are not compatible.
