(FORTUNE Magazine) – HIGHLIGHT PRINTER Liven up those drab forms and reports. The Xerox 4850 Highlight Color Laser Printing System is the first printer to produce color documents in one pass, pumping out 50 pages per minute. Other color printers need several passes and several minutes per page. The 4850 prints only in black and one color (red, blue, or green), but can produce multiple shades. Variable data, such as the amount due on a bill, can be highlighted in the hue. Best of all, the feature is effectively a freebie -- at $140,500, the 4850 costs the same as Xerox's comparable black and white printer. Available through Xerox in major cities.

TINIER CAMCORDERS Sony and Canon are sparring over who makes the world's smallest 8-mm camcorder. The Canon UC1, left, is smaller by a smidgen, but the Sony CCD-TR51 has a less bulky shape: Consult your metaphysician. Both are 10% smaller than anything before -- just over six inches long, weighing about 1.3 pounds without tape or battery. So choose on features. A single chip controls all the Sony functions, including technically advanced digital signal processing. Canon's analog UC1 has four chips and owes its miniature status to design efficiencies. Both have a digital superimposer that saves an image, such as a street sign, and integrates it into your footage, but the UC1 lets you create animation by flicking back and forth between two saved images. The Sony offers stereo sound and a world clock that shifts time zones instantly. Canon's zoom lens magnifies objects eight times; Sony's, six. Canon is the heavyweight in price at $1,499. The Sony sells for $1,200.
