I'm hoping to find a portable laser printer or at a small laser which can be used on the road or in a portable office. Have searched but everywhere I read they seems to say that such lasers do not exist.

Are laser printers so delicate that they cannot handle being kept in a pick up truck or car?

Anyone know of a printer that is small and can handle such use?

I could imagine taking a cargo van and making it into an office or maybe custimzing a passenger van. Probably someone out there has a business that can handle this that specializes in customization.

There are some problems that I would see. You have to secure the printer so it can not tip or fall over onto the floor (oops). Laser printers like a clean dry environment with low humidity. When the inside of a vehicle is being heated up in a parking lot from the sun that may be detrimental to any electronic equipment, but especially to the toner cartridge.

My HP 1012 Laser is not much larger than a standard Inkjet printer.
