Abstract In the 15th century Guttenberg printed the Bible on the first moveable type press, and the world was forever changed. What can we learn from the legacy of an invention created nearly 550 years ago? What could the RP industry possibly take from this German inventor and the processes that followed throughout the centuries? There is a strong similarity between printing and RP, which can lead to valuable information and insight. In a sense, the history of printing may well be the future of RP. Today, printing technology offers a vast array of options. There are processes for everything from a single bar code label to millions of color catalogs. Each process has its own distinct advantages in its area of application. This specialization also applies to printing companies that have niche applications in which they build their success. With this specialization, a single organization does not dominate the entire printing market. Instead, many companies are positioned as market leaders. Building from the w orld of printing, the article presents 10 predictions for the future of RP. XX
