Office Depot Massively Extends 3D Printing Experience to 150 Stores

Wow, this is some pretty big news. Office Depot has been testing a Cubify 3D Printing section of their store in Denver. The feedback from customers have been so positive that they are now about to extend the "3D Printing Experience" to 150 stores nationwide! What this means is that 150 Office Depot locations will now have a section of the store in which an employee shows customers how these 3D Printers work. The Printer which will be on display is the 3D Systems Cubify 3D Printer, which Office Depot will also be selling. Here is a list of the 150 store locations which will offer the 3D Printing experience:

I'm surprised more big outlets haven't done the same also. This is all about profit, and like the printing industry, it's largely based on consumables. Coming directly from a printing background, I can tell you that this is how printing companies primarily make money. Service contracts and toner agreements. In the case of Cube systems, They have a 100-500 percent mark up margin on all their proprietary filament, so it's much like the days of bubble jet printers all over again. Great for businesses, bad for consumers.

I feel open source 3D printers are the way of the future, not these cut down machines that are designed to look pretty and make your average house wife (or house husband) with no prior knowledge of 3d modelling or printing, believe they can simply turn it on and churn out that spare Stove dial or kitchen cupboard handle in a few clicks of a mouse. Any of us with printers know it's not all that straight forward.

wow.. what a wonderful site its so amazing.. this site is so knowledgeable site.. i really like it.. this site is very detailing site.. i really impressed it.. thanks for sharing this site.. carry on..

Very interesting. From what I understand, Office Depot will be selling the Cube 3D Printers and have a demo going on in these stores. They ARE NOT providing a 3d printing service. I don't see why stores like this don't provide a service to people that wish to print their designs but dont' want to purchase a printer.

I think it's purely down to how long the machines take to print. It's not like a photo developer that can be done in 15 mins or less, but I do agree it would be cool and they should have some service going, even one they run the machine after hours.. but even then could you keep up with the demand? then you have to hire people to maintain the machines, run the prints, ensure they are good prints.. etc.. it's a fair bit - and we are talking multiple machines, a store would need several one would imagine. Sure, they would pay for themselves - but the cost itself would be astronomical - I would shudder to think what the end consumer price for a printed item would be after all costs are accounted for .. gulp :)
