Idea for an app

I was up at 3am trying to get my fucking printer to work for school, for some reason printing from browser preview doesn't send the print command to my printer, I don't have time to research proper updated driver for my printer, and I'm a fucking computer science major. Took me like 20 minutes to get the fucking thing to do work.

Then it got me thinking how the zoomer generation will use printers, most of them don't even have a desktop in the firstplace, just phones and tablets, in the future they probably won't even buy printers.


*BANG*

The Uber of printing. You need something printed, you uploaded the document, along with required specifcations (collated, etc) and it will upload to the apps server. Local people who own printers and are signed up as printers will be notified of this request if their printer they registered with the app is capable of fulfilling the customer's requirements. The user with the printer can print it up, take a picture of it (for proof purposes) and deliver it to the person for a fee.

Honestly how often to most normies even need to print something? Does buying a $100 printer and buying ink every month make sense when they just spent $3 a few times a month when they need something printed?

So who wants to make this then pay me a salary as the idea guy?

So I don't mean to be rude but I'm taking note of this on my notepad app and may act on it at a later point and take full credit.

are you not describing Kinko's right now?

Well see I understand that but you are probably going to forget about this idea that came to your mind all of a sudden in a day or two. I might actually make it happen and I will hide under the radar while I take in the profits and sit on my fuckin ass.

Make it happen

You're going to have a hard time beating the UPS store and similar places. Most people don't need it delivered, so it's going to be cheaper to just pick it up themselves. Plus most people needing to print things are either students with access to a library with printers, or employees in an office with printers.
I just don't see much of a market.

I like it but printing isn't exactly an expensive thing to do. You could only charge like $1 for your average college paper, because who in their right mind would pay more?

>inb4 someone hacks your app and spam prints bbc porn to every printer on the global network

Most people don't need food delivered either, but grub hub etc made it cheaper. The point of this app is that there could be tons of people with printers around you, with any luck your neighbor will be a printer. The delivery won't be from a guy being paid hourly in a building 3 miles away, it will be from a guy in his sweatpants without a shirt a house over.
