ok, that raises an interesting question: what is the most ink-economic printing encoding for digital data?
For example, I want to print a PNG file, instead of printing out the picture, I want to preserve its original files hex codes, instead of printing some SVG curves, I would print its XML source instead. Instead of printing formulas, I would print the LaTex source code directly. This could be lossless data printing.
What would be the most effeciant, ink-saving, and easy to recognize, and error-preventing serialization format for printing?
