That is brilliant. I especially love the pretense that a LEGO horse is providing the drive power and various minifigs at computer terminals are controlling the operation. A perfect feat of creative engineering!

Cool. Quite an over-achievement of the age old "first program"...

Agreed. The minifigs "running" the printer definitely put it over the top for me. I'm glad you all enjoyed the find! :)
