Forty years ago, the launch of the Xerox 9700 – the company’s first commercial laser printer – gave rise to the digital printing industry, which today generates more than $120 billion in global annual revenues, according to Smithers Pira.
my first real job was at a national print service bureau based in Atlanta. I operated and programmed 4-5 of these ($500,000 each) laser printers in 1981.
