By Pia Heikkila

Published: 26 April 2000 12:08 BST

HP is to use Geode processors from National Semiconductor in its printers.

The Geode-based devices are designed to enhance Internet and remote printing. HP's JetDirect 4000 printers will be the first to incorporate the technology.

Geode features on-chip graphics, memory control and a PCI interface, which should allow faster and better quality printing. The appliance allows browser-based management suitable for remote installing and management of print queues.
