Inventors whose work lets machines print, copy and display images, including the 3D printer that builds objects layer by layer, electrophotography, now called xerography, which makes dry copies, and the organic light emitting diode, the OLED, used in modern displays. A person belongs here when the cited article credits the person with inventing a printing, copying, imaging or display technology. It excludes inventors of the older letterpress and lithographic printing, who belong with the printing inventors.
