Umshicileli wekhaya namhlanje awuyinto yokunethezeka, kodwa kuyimfuneko. Yaye kungekhona nje kuphela kubabenzi bee-freelancers basebenza ekhaya, kodwa nakwabafundi, abantwana besikolo kunye nabafazi.
Mhlawumbi sele unomshicileli, kwaye ungathanda ukuyihlaziya. Kwaye oku kulungile, kuba kwiminyaka embalwa edluleyo, kungekhona nje imodeli emitsha yemveliso esaziwayo kuwe kwihlabathi, kodwa kunye nabashicileli ngokusekelwe kobuchwephesha bokushicilela. Thatha ubuncinane iteknoloji ye-LED yanamhlanje, efana ne-laser. Ngokuqhelekileyo isebe layo elifanayo. Zombini i-diode yokukhanyisa kunye nabashicileli be-laser banikwe i-shaft ye-photosensitive apho umthombo wokukhanya usebenza kumaqondo afanelekileyo, "uguqula" i-toner-powder kwi-shaft. Kule meko, i-laser isetyenziswe njengomthombo wokukhanya wabashicileli be-laser, kunye nee-LED-ii-LED ezingaphantsi kwe-laser ngokuchanekileyo. Oku kuyintloko yabo. Kodwa le teknoloji inamandla angaphantsi kwamandla, kwaye isantya seeprinta ze-LED, ezinye izinto zilingana, ziphakamileyo kunezinye iilayisti. Nangona kunjalo, umshicileli we-laser usasaziwa kakhulu, kubandakanywa nesicatshulwa sasekhaya. Imifanekiso eprintwe kuyo, zombini umbala kunye abamnyama nabamhlophe, abayikwesaba ilanga kunye nomswakama, abanalo iindidi. Ukongeza, umshicileli we-laser ufumaneke nakubani na owufunayo, awuthathi indawo enkulu kwideskithophu kwaye unesantya esiphezulu sokushicilela.
