Oak Knoll has recently bought the remaining copies of an esteemed title
on printing history entitled “Print Unchained: Fifty Years of Digital
Printing, 1950-2000 and Beyond.” Originally offered at a retail of $125,
we are now selling the title for $49.95, less than 40% of the original price.
“Print Unchained” in many ways continues the story started
with our previous title “Before Photocopying,” in that it
chronicles the evolution of printing and coping technology and its role in
office efficiency. Together they are important references for anyone interested
in manuscripts and archives or in the continued evolution of printing
technologies outside the world of commercial book production.

PRINT UNCHAINED: FIFTY YEARS OF DIGITAL PRINTING, 1950-2000 AND BEYOND
- A SAGA OF INVENTION AND
By Edward Webster
First edition. Written to fill a perceived gap in technology history,
the author seeks not only to document but also to celebrate the role digital
printing has taken in the dissemination of ideas and images. Containing
background and instructional material, Part One first examines the roots of
digital printing and then the various technologies, applications and broad
changes in both the products and the industry over the fifty years from 1950 to
2000. In Part two, each decade is closely examined by focusing on one or two
industry-changing companies, following their contributions from their inception
to the present day. From Adobe to Xerox, from IBM and GE to Dataproducts and
Printronix, the stories of these entrepreneurs and managers who helped make
this revolution happen unfold, many times in their own words. A review of the
patterns and lesson learned and a look into the future of digital printing
comprise Part Three, followed by a glossary, a bibliography and an index. There
are, of course, numerous black & white and color illustrations.
