3-D Printing Could Be a Money Tree for the Ailing U.S. Postal Service

According to a new report, The United States Postal Service thinks 3-D printing could be a financial boon for the agency.

The white paper, which was released Monday (July 7), is from the USPS’ inspector general office. It speculates that as 3-D printing becomes more popular, the USPS would make money in various ways, one of which is due to cost-savings by not having to spend as much money transporting items over large distances.
