Abstract

“Printing is dead now that we have these new devices.” We've all heard that said. “Young people don't want to print anymore!” We've heard that endless times. “Office work is changing so printers will become obsolete.” Yup, old news. “The way people take and share pictures make printing photos unnecessary.” Way too many times! “Communication and people have evolved that paper is just passé” Volumes have been written on this! Oh wait – you thought I was talking about recent news with mobile devices and wearables. I was talking about the last several compute revolutions and the pundits predictions on printing. They were wrong before (sort of) and they are wrong again (sort of).
