typed in alt.windows7.general the following:
Printing, though, is way behind in terms of
technology. A printed page looks better than it
used to, but it's prohibitively expensive and time
consuming. I print almost nothing other than business
contracts and receipts. Even receipts I now usually
just send as PDFs. Then I print out a single copy for
my own records.

One of the "joys" of Modern Technology, is that I can download
text A (Say the King James Psalter), then "mark it up" using notes
from Text B ( the Kathisma/Stasis sections of the Orthodox church, or
the Monthly Reading of the Anglicans, or both,) and then printing the
whole megillah. OTOH, I've been binding my own books (using needle &
thread to stitch the signatures together) for a long time.
But I rarely make more than one copy. I fully understand why
books are expensive, and were formerly even more so.
