(Mis)Uses of Technology

The Printer ATM

from the interesting-ideas dept

Some companies have come together to support the PrintMe standard, which sounds like it might be cool, or might be useless. The idea is that you'll be able to print from any computer or any device (connected to the internet) at any PrintMe location. The plan is to get tons of print shops or other public places to support the PrintMe standard, so that you really will be able to pick up your printout from any location - sort of like an ATM machine for printers.
