The printer emoji is used when printing documents or photos from a computer onto paper. You often see it when you have to turn in a school assignment.
It represents situations like needing to print important documents or preparing presentation materials. People sometimes send it instead of text when asking, "Can you print this for me?"

It holds a unique position of producing analog results in a digital age. Perhaps because of this, it can sometimes mean 'old-fashioned' or a 'cumbersome process.'
Interestingly, because it brings to mind malfunctions like paper jams or low ink, it's sometimes used to mean 'things aren't going well.' Conversely, in the stock market, it's nicknamed the 'money printer' to mean continuously making money.
