Print Unchained is a visually rich celebration of the contribution of digital printing to commerce and the human experience. This unique history tells the story with authority, readability, and refreshing flashes of insight and humor. Industry leaders tell how (and sometimes why) they did it. Case vignettes show how strategic decisions fit or failed to fit changing technology and market realities. A global overview of the technologies, a glossary and bibliography make this an industry handbook as well as a history.
