Yes, it's certainly in general use. And its page marks "shop=printing" as a tagging error.
So I decided to read the documentation about shop vs amenity, and apparently some shops are marked as amenities if they are useful for tourists, which I guess a pharmacy is and a chemist isn't. And estate agents are offices not shops. Good. The shop=printing discussion page explains why that tag isn't a good idea either. Basically the distinction needs to be drawn between wholesale and retail (copyshop) printing. I'd guess that shop=copy_shop covers the case where Martin proposed shop=printing_service. As for the industrial-strength version, I don't know. The shop=copy_shop page also has a fairly large menu of service choices, including press, prepress, print, ... I pretty much copied that for the (approved) amenity=internet_cafe proposal. Not sure if the tourist interest is high enough for internet_cafe to be an amenity rather than a shop (I'd say yes), but in any case it was approved as an amenity.
