We can make back some money if we give printing paper some
adspace, small watermarks off to one side.
We could even couple it with software to make the ads take up
more space, and so make it even cheaper. Each sheet could
have
ads already printed in weird patterns that special software is
built to keep a track of and print around, so that eventually
most
printed documents look like those cluttered news websites,
where you can't tell the content from the ads. Since this will
force users to read the ads before filtering them out, prices
will
drop down further.
We could make it so that you can only use this proprietary
software, allowing even more ads when using the software as
well. By this point everyone can get one free printer per day.
Bonus: 3D printers. Imagine 3D printers selling for dirt cheap,
but
every print you do also prints a fun moving contraption that's
also
an advertisement. The 3D analogue for pictures of beautiful
women to grab attention is left as an exercise.

So I've got to buy printing ingredients and they're used for ads? |

So my protest poster needs a tiny corporate ad in the corner? |

I am sure we have done ad-supported printers on here before. The novel idea here is that the printer re-formats the document to flow the content around in-line adverts, news column style. |
