Instead of staying up late at home printing materials, I now have access to on-demand, high-quality color printing right in our classroom. This has opened the door for vibrant projects that make student learning come alive. Our very first major project with the printer was a family collage display, where parents sent in family photos for their children to showcase. The joy and pride on my students' faces as they saw their family photos in bright color was unforgettable.
