Even if the bookshop printed 24h a day, and the printer worked perfectly, you could only print 144 books a day. That's not very many for even a moderately successful bookshop.

But it IS good for say out of print books or rare books or just books that are out of stock at the time and people might be willing to wait for a few days to get a book printed then.
