Printer/copiers are now considered a staple in businesses and offices, but it was only about a half-century ago that they first came into existence. Before the advent of the copier, copying a single document was tedious, time consuming, and often done by hand. After Xerox’s 1959 release of the user-friendly "914," Americans went from making 20 million copies to 14 billion a year, and the copier’s influences on work and communication ran wide and deep. To experience the history of this life-changing technology, come travel back in time with Laser Line, the Linthicum, MD-based provider of premier copier and printer services.

When copiers first became popular, they did more than facilitate document production. What we now know as the "memo" began when workers in corporations started prolifically copying documents that were once exclusive to upper-level management. Copiers not only made workplace communication more widespread and efficient, but they also increased personal communication, such as letters, recipes, party invitations, and even office jokes. Additionally, copiers facilitated freedom of speech, social consciousness, and artistic innovation, as writers were able to bypass the normal gatekeepers and bureaucracy of corporations and publishers to create independent, local, and underground forms of media. In short, copiers gave a voice to a wider range of people and welcomed more diverse and creative messages.

At the start of the 21st century, printer/copiers continue to impact the way people work. New technologies and movements, such as the "bring your own device movement" have added to the copier’s influence. Laser Line in Linthicum, MD, continues to promote and supply these powerful machines.
