printer · tool
a device that creates copies of digital content on paper
Examples
- The HP LaserJet 4L printed 5,000 pages in a 1998 office deployment before failing. engineering
- The New York Public Library’s 1995 digital archive project used an Epson Stylus Pro to output catalog records on acid-free paper. institutions
- During the 2003 blackout, a Dell 1720 printer in Toronto kept producing election ballots until power failed. everyday life
Emergence
through: the device uses electricity to drive a print mechanism that deposits ink onto paper, creating copies
- physical output of digital data
- automated replication on demand
- precise spatial deposition of ink
