How’s this for the world of the future? Soon, office supplies chain Staples will give you access to a 3D printer all from the comfort of your computer.

“A new service called “Staples Easy 3D” will allow customers to upload their designs to Staples’ website, then pick up the printed objects at their local office supply megastore, or have them shipped to their home or business — not unlike the photo- and document-printing service the company already offers.”

The project was announced today at the annual EuroMold conference by 3D printer manufacturer Mcor Technologies who is partnering with Staples to use their new Iris printers for the service.

Think of the possibilities, just think.
