Designed by Philippe Vossel, the PIK A6 printer is designed with a portable aesthetic to make it a suitable piece of equipment to utilize within the home, at the office or on a trip. The unit can print in a matter of moments to ensure that the device stays as agile as possible when it comes to providing mobile printing capabilities.
