Carolyn Snyder explains how usability professionals can use paper prototypes to do their work faster, better, more independently, and with lower risk. For instance, paper prototypes reduce the need for programmers and servers, user testing can be conducted using the paper version, and design changes are easily made with a pen.

Probably the worst mistakes I have observed in paper prototyping is when prototype designers limit their mockup to the visible space on the paper at hand while forgetting that web pages can contain much more content than paper. Paper is simply missing a scroll down function.
