printer

A business or home without a printer is like a New Year's Eve party without a clock. A printer has become an absolute essential item in any business or home in developed countries.

It wasn't always like this. Even ten years ago, a printer was seen as a real luxury in a home. Now most homes have a printer, and most of the time it also has copying functionality, to boot.

The uses for printers are endless. You can use them to print up IRS tax forms or to print out that uproarious anecdote your friend emailed you last week.

Printers come in all different shapes and sizes. Some cost in the tens of thousands of dollars, and some you can get at your local computer hardware store for less than $100. It just depends what your needs are and for what you are going to use the printer.

Since Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing press back in the 1450's, printers have been used to print newspapers, magazines, books, and stationary (just to name a few). Bloggers speaking about printers can be found at sites like labnol and inkforprinter.
