"A new vending machine has been released which can print any book within minutes. The Espresso Book Machine has access to 500,000 different books and can even churn out a fresh copy of Crime and Punishment in just nine minutes. Pages are printed at a rate of over 100 per minute & are then pressed, glued & cut to produce a pristine book. Users simply pick the book they would like on a screen and wait for it to be printed … it certainly is a novel way of getting a new book."
I have a Powells Bookstore a few hours away from me with one of these machines. I will do this some day.
