Digital Printing in Government

• The State of Washington’s Department of Printing has embraced the Integrated Suite of Kodak Solutions (i.e. Prinergy, computer-to-plate and NexPress) to show its customers how new technology—particularly variable data—can help them better reach their audiences.

INTERQUEST analysts presented preliminary findings from a new Digital Printing in Government study. David Davis, director at INTERQUEST, said that 60 percent of the federal in-plant managers interviewed for this year’s study have seen print volumes decline in the past two years due to the impact of electronic media, while 33 percent have seen no impact. He reported that only 9 percent of respondents expect their monochrome digital printing to increase over the next three years, while the majority sees their volume staying flat.
