	Mimeograph machine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The mimeograph machine (commonly abbreviated to mimeo) or stencil duplicator was a printing machine that was far cheaper per copy than any other process in runs of several hundred to several thousand copies.
		The term "Mimeograph" was originally protected as a trademark, however over time the term became generic and is now an example of a genericized trademark [1].
		Mimeographs were used extensively in the production of fanzines in the middle 20th century, before photocopiers became widespread.
