Canon has released its superior model ink jet printer at fairly reasonable price of $69.99 in the name of MP 280 Pixma. It is the most suitable printer for home business and small office where the total number of copies taken will be comparatively less. Although this model is less expensive and can be set up easily even at home, this lacks some essential features one would expect in an ink jet printer. It does not provide internet connectivity by wireless mode, and it does not have document feeder.

A 12-YEAR-OLD nephew’s addiction to cyber and gaming cafes led Member of
Parliament Ellen Lee (Sembawang GRC), to table similar questions to three
different ministries in Parliament yesterday.
According to Ms Lee, her nephew’s addiction had led to his incurring a
debt. She asked if there were sufficient controls and measures against the
proliferation of cyber gaming cafes, especially in the heartlands and
close to schools.
In reply, Senior Minister of State for Home Affairs, Associate Professor
Ho Peng Kee, said the police do not allow computer gaming establishments
to be set up in Housing and Development Board (HDB) residential zones
where most schools are located.
Such establishments are only allowed in shopping, recreational or
commercial centres, he said. HDB town centres, however, were classified as
part commercial and part residential and could allow gaming establishments
to operate. But he assured the House that the police assess the location’s
suitability before granting licences.
Ms Lee also asked about steps taken by schools and communities to minimise
obsession or addiction by children and youths to cyber gaming.
In response, Minister of State for Education Gan Kim Yong said schools
adopt a “holistic approach” to the problem. Besides actively advising
students against frequenting computer games centres or cyber cafes, they
also do counselling. Ang Mo Kio Secondary School, for example, has
included topics such as blogging, Internet gaming and cyber bullying in
the school’s Civics and Moral Education module. The Education Ministry is
also preparing a cyber-wellness resource kit to complement the schools’
efforts.
Mr Teo Ser Luck, Parliamentary Secretary of the Ministry of Community
Development, Youth and Sports, added that his ministry is working with
community partners such as the National Youth Council, and the National
Committee on Youth Guidance and Rehabilitation, to promote cyber-wellness
among youths.
Meanwhile, the police raided three Internet cafes – believed to be
providing illegal online gambling – in Geylang last Friday and arrested 15
men and three women, and seized 84 computers, 21 fruit machines and more
than $20,000 in cash.
