Maybe not by *you*. But it's photoshopped.
http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/hoaxes/computer.asp even has the original
picture (a museum exhibit of a submarine's control room) that was
modified. (Notice there's something Escher-like about the way the paper
hangs in that printer.. at the top it's at the rear of the printer, but
hanging straight down somehow it's close to the front when it gets to
the bottom. And the printer's design is more '60s than '50s.)
