It's a Konica Minolta Bizhub 42. It was really hard to get it home. What would you do if you found a working photocopier? Would you spend the whole day just trying to get it up the stairs? Would you print a bunch of zines on it and sell them online?  |

Yes and yes! I found a super old riso on the basement of an old church during a weird party a few months ago and spent several hours the next day trying to get it in my house with a friend. needs some work, but i think it will be worth the effort.

I love this. thorazos, how did you get it up the stairs? (And how many stairs?) |

The fact that a photocopier would present itself to Julia, a committed and prolific self-publisher for many years, increases my faith in the basic karmic goodness of the universe. mikesheawright I want an update from you as well! Maintaining a photocopier seems more approachable to me than a riso, since I'm sure we've all seen anecdotes about how finicky and difficult the latter can be. |
