Espresso Book Machine




"What Gutenberg’s press did for Europe in the 15th century digitization and the Espresso Book Machine will do for the world tomorrow."

The Espresso Book Machine is the newest technology in printing, it prints, collates, covers, and binds a single book in a few minutes on demand. The sad reality of out of print books is a thing of the past. These machines are small enough to fit into a retail shop or library (or my bed room - Christmas wish 2012) and can potentially change the way people buy books forever. The customer can choose from a web based catalog of books or bring in their own file or flash drive in PDF format.

I am just thinking about the possibilities and implications of this machine. self publishing. Seriously amazing.

On demand books here.
