I made a tool to send letters and now people use it to just print. What was the last thing you printed?

[captn3m0]

I printed out an application form and had it delivered to a physical drop box at the Indian Railways office (they don’t accept email) via Blinkit (Indian quick commerce app, which does print+delivery in 10 minutes.).

That sounds interesting and superfast! Would be cool to use that! "The need was very selfish - we all felt that sporadic printing should not be a burden that occupies permanent space in our lives only to fail us when we really need it. Our existing distribution network also enabled us to deliver high-quality printouts to our customers at their doorsteps in minutes."

What do you mean exactly? They just print some documents they need and get them mailed to themselves?

[bahrtw]

Yes! So my assumption is people don’t have printers anymore and want a easy way to print if they have or want to.

They just add files like a .pdf and let them send to their homes. So they have real physical prints..

This reminds of Google Paper in 2007: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Google_April_Fools%27_... I know at least 2 people who were fooled by it haha.

[bahrtw]

Haha, that’s a good one! I promise it’s real – otherwise, it would be a very late April Fool’s joke!

Copies of all the documents I need to give to my accountant to assemble my taxes. Likely around 100 pages or so.

[bahrtw]

So you bring them to your accountant and he scans them? You do around 100 pages every quarter? May I ask where you are living that he needs hardcopy?

[unsnap_biceps]

No, I scan them and print the copies. My accountant is paper only and it's a yearly thing, not a quarterly thing. I live in the boonies.

I print and platicize a lot of food recipes and maps for boy (and girl) scouts.

[bahrtw]

Nice! You have a printer yourself?

[fifilura]

Yes, only cheap black and white laser printer, nothing fancy.
