"No Kedushah until someone reads it" -- This sounds like a relevant factor if we're talking about Davar Mitzva; "hazmana lav milsa" and all that.

But we're talking about a level up from there: A written/printed word is a question of Davar *Kedusha*. The kavana and actions of the one *making* the object is critical. Surely no one would say that a Sefer Torah which was properly written by a proper person with proper kavanos has no Kedushah until someone reads it. In fact, the halachos of when a sofer cannot correct his own error prove that the Kedusha already exists from the moment of writing, even before he reads it and finds the error.
