Have you come across the word 'Fabber' yet? It’s a new-ish industry term for a 3D printing device – one of those that makes things out of plastic instead of documents out of paper. The appearance of a new category name is a strong indicator to a trend spotter that rapid changes are going on in that area. I am led to believe that prices are falling fast and there is an open innovation movement at work. Those factors usually signal disruptive innovation. We'll have a session dedicated to this emerging trend at the event as one of our Printer industry analysts, Pete Basiliere, takes a hard look at what's really going on.
